Accidental

My sister-in-law called to tell my wife that she'd just learned some horrifying news. Her daughter's current college roommate was in a terrible car accident, and is now on life support -- but they think that she is already brain-dead.

Why is it that the first thing you think of when hearing news such as that is was it her fault?

Because that means you get taken off the list of such events. It cannot happen to you and yours because it would NEVER be your fault.

Oh, wait, that was my mother-in-laws fault for having an old house with such narrow stairs. I gotcha.
