伦敦保赔协会近期开展了一项针对”碰撞事故产生根本原因”的调查分析。意料之中的是，大部分的事故原因最终都可以被归类为人为过失。在对这类事故原因进行深入调查后，不难得出船员过于自信的过失一定程度上导致了部分事故的发生。
一个广为传播的事例是：一艘已进港的散货船正在靠近分道通航制区域边缘，船舶慢驶并发出抵达邻近沿岸通航区一引航站的预计时间。按照航行计划，该船即将向右转舵更改航向。

Complacency on the bridge
The London P&I Club recently undertook a “Root Cause Analysis” of collision cases which, unsurprisingly, concluded that the majority of root causes could be categorised as Human Errors. Within this group of causes, it was apparent that upon detailed examination a degree of complacency may have contributed to some of these incidents.
A notable example is that of an entered bulk carrier which was nearing the end of a Traffic Separation Scheme. The ship was slowing to make an ETA at a pilot station in the adjacent Inshore Traffic Zone, and was soon to make a substantial alteration of course to Starboard in accordance with her passage plan.
