True:

They usually figure out a percentage and lay blame that way. I use to
follow boating accidents via several web sites. Just looking for what
was the most common causes and or contributing factors etc.

Most seem to be closed up, but I use to be able to find some pretty good
information.

When you get right down to it, if you look at the rules, IF you have a
collision, the odds on you having done everything correctly are in the
"slim to none" category, which leads to proportioned blame ..... BG
exceptions noted.

OH - OH - let me write that down.

"proportioned blame"

Love it. :)
