MMOB

MMOB (Minding my own business) seems to be the factor most often implicated in major trauma presenting to the emergency department. Overlawyered.com had a recent post describing how the British are removing "Accident" from the legal lexicon of automobile crashes. Their comment was that this action was part of the continued need to always find someone to blame for everything. For our trauma cases, the person MMOB is always the victim to SD (some Dude).

I am hoping to find the reformer of this current attitude and write MYODF (my own D**** fault)!

I thought we from the U.S. were going from MVA to MVC because insurance companies call it a collision vs accident. What's up with that?

I don't know if that is everywhere but I saw it at work and so started using it. I actually vacillated between the two.
