Accident
From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An accident is when something goes wrong when it is not meant to. Physical accidents are things like collisions, injuries, and falling. Non-physical accidents are things like accidentally telling someone a secret, forgetting something important, or deleting an important computer file.
Often, accidents are investigated so that we can learn how to avoid them in the future.
