What people get arrested for is negligence. Accidents, not so much.

Colliding with a motorcycle rider who was stupidly riding in your blind spot might be an accident.
As a motorcycle rider I can't leave this unanswered. If you collide with a motorcycle rider who happens to be in your blind spot it is not an accident but negligence on your side because you failed to look over your shoulder.
And, I admit, stupidity on the biker's part, because the first thing they tell you in motorcycle driving lessons is that cars are your enemies and they don't take prisoners.
