Beinaheunfälle Explanation: Hallo Nicole, Du hast recht, "near misses" bedeutet Beinaheunfälle. Ich würde das Betriebs- in diesem Fall weglassen. Alternative Übersetzungen sind Fastzusammenstöße, Beinahezusammenstöße. In Deinem Kontext passt aber Beinaheunfälle am besten. Viele Grüße Claudia |

Beinahe-Zusammenstöße Explanation: I only know the term in the context of air traffic, where it is used for "close calls" between aircraft. You will need to decide whether it fits your context. |
