Other | | Dutch term or phrase: schierongevallen | I think it is a near-accident but it is a list of accidents that have to be reported and "bijna ongeval" already appears in the list. The list goes as follows :
Alle ongevallen, incidenten met verzorging, bijna ongevallen, geconstateerde incidenten en alle schierongevallen. |

| Grading comment Thanks all of you, but I'll go for near-incidents as I already translated bijna-ongeval by near-accident, but I agree that these are synonyms !

24 mins confidence:   near-incidents
Explanation:
I think "schierongeval" and "bijna ongeval" are synonyms, so why don't you use "near-incident", which I think is a synonym for
"near-accident" in English?
