I thought this would be the answer.

But I don't think that is consistent with the 'causing an accident' fine remaining to exist. Surely that should be removed under this logic too?

Rule 1.2 clearly states "This includes negligent and reckless driving, provoking accidents, for example blocking the track, doing stunts or doughnuts on the road and so on."

Negligent and reckless driving is what results in accidents and that is a fineable offence yet it is a server rule too.

This is why I don't understand why failure to move for sirens was removed and causing an accident remains.

There is a difference between ramming and causing an accident.
Ramming is deliberately, accidents are accidental incidents.

I don't think you're understanding the point here. "This includes negligent and reckless driving" infers that although a crash may not be deliberate, if you cause one by accident due to negligent and reckless driving, you are in breach of the rules.

E.g. driving too fast before a junction and not being able to stop in time, meaning you hit another car. This would be negligent and reckless driving, cops would fine for it (because they have caused an accident) and I can imagine admins might have a word about it too if reported to them.
