But "crash" is also a perfectly good word; what's wrong with using that word instead, especially since some people don't like the word "accident?"

- kazinator 10y agoMainly what is wrong with it is that we're then caving in to a few people who don't like a word. "Crash" isn't a perfectly good word because negligent drivers can cause an accident without themselves crashing. That word is used anyway, and in practice it is no more or less informative than "accident".
