Typically wrong ... If I'm stopped in my powerboat and you hit me in your
sailboat, you were traveling at excessive/unsafe speed

Not if you stopped right in front of me. Sailboats don't have
brakes you know. You were wrong to stop right in front of
me. That makes you the party primarily responsible for the
collision. Your motorboat arrogance is showing again.

You create a situation that causes a collision and then you
seem to think you can blame it on the sailboat. It won't
fly.
