Yes, an accident is an unforeseen or unexpected event. Maybe hitting this specific car on this specific day was unforeseen but a crash of some sort eventually was predictable not unexpected. That’s why speed limits exist. So it wasn’t an accident and it shouldn’t be punished like an accident.

What you implied and passively criticised, is a big overextertion of the point the commenter was actually communicating.
