When to use the Poisson probability Use when you have events that can happen instantaneously and at any time. The chance of two or more events happening at the same time is effectively zero for a time span small enough. For example: A certain street corner has an average of 7 traffic accidents per year. What is the probability that there will be 8 accidents the following year. Here our lambda is 7, the average from which we base the likelihood of traffic accidents happening in a year. Our random variable is 8. The probability will be less than if our random variable was 7 and more than if our random variable was 9. This probability distribution has a bell shaped curve to it.
