The basic idea behind that is also used in all sorts of networks where you have multiple stations sharing the same medium with everyone being able to freely send stuff. To solve this, if a "collision" is detected, stations then use a random timeout before they send again in the hope that the next time there won't be another collision. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple_access_with_collision_detection https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple_access_...
