In a report that will make you want to travel by car for the rest of your life, the FAA's records detail how "near collision" episodes are frequent and ongoing.
Near miss can be a confusing phrase, but it means a miss where the objects (or planes here) were very near each other. With that context, a near collision wouldn’t make sense as there’s no way to have a collision where the objects are just near each other (as opposed to contacting each other).
