[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 982650, member: 13921"] 4 or 5 years ago, I was on the safety committee and we were told that 40ish% of all crashes were ruled unavoidable. I said, "I find that shocking. I do not think I have EVER heard a supe talk about an unavoidable and what the driver did to ensure that what he did was safe." I went on, "If you want to increase your credibility, start telling us about ALL the unavoidables, how you determined that and then congratulate the driver for doing their job." (or something to that effect. I kind of went on a rant about it, the point is, they got the message that focusing on negative only was getting them nowhere.) Since that rant, we do hear about the unavoidables in our center and the 'victims' of those crashes are congratulated for doing their job in a way that made 'unavoidable' the ruling. I think our safety picture and attitudes would improve significantly if more of our unavoidables were celebrated. [/QUOTE]
