the risk of collision refers to the potential danger of two vessels colliding while underway. Such a risk can arise when vessels are traveling in close proximity and there is little communication or understanding of each other's intentions. The International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea COLREGS aim to avoid such risks by providing rules for vessel navigation. These rules include maintaining proper lookout, observing safe distance, and taking speedy and suitable measures to prevent collision.
