Yep I agree and that is my thoughts on the subject. I know of a couple in an RV last week that passed the centerline
as well and had a head on with a semi and both in the RV died. They were both retired and doing a tour of America by
RV for fun. So unfortunately accidents do happen, we all just have to put in our best and try to be vigilant at all
times no matter the mode of transportation. I think people "accept" the risk of driving more because it is more
natural. Evolution didn't prepare us to fly so I think there is more fear involved and a bigger sense of helplessness
in aviation most of which is hardwired IMO.


As tragic as this is, is it truly an accident? To me an accident is something like a freak gust of wind blowing so hard
that the RV crossed over into the other lane...



I think it is an accident by most generally accepted definitions such
as: http://m-w.com/dictionary/accident

Unless, of course, they intentionally cross the centerline and hit the semi.
