Really? Not steering into a stopped, highly visible emergency vehicle with its lights on?

Humans do a lot of dumb, irresponsible things on the road, but this is not one of them.

It shouldn't even be a question, seriously?

This cop[1] tells a lady not to stand between the vehicles because she will get killed if his patrol car gets hit, and seconds later it happens and he says "just like that".

>this is not one of them.

Yes[2], this[3] is[4] one[5] of[6] them[7].

This is the reality of the situation and, frankly, should be a top-level comment. I don't really have a horse in this overall race but IMO your factual perspective is spot-on -- this has happened, plenty of times, by actual humans.

Just like anything else, it may not be common (or it may be 'uncommon') but, to say that it never happens, is plainly, clearly and objectively false.
