Do you think the word accident applies to circumstances that used very poor judgement?

If a car crashes and the driver was looking down at his phone texting, did he have an accident?
When someone gets hurt because people are rough housing?
When a glass of red wine falls on the white carpet and the glass had been set down at the table’s edge?
When a child gets burned because the pot handle was left sticking out from the stove.
A person gets lost in a snowstorm and almost dies, because they took a remote path.
Are those accidents?
