In a poll, respondents were asked whether they had ever been in a car accident. 215 respondents indicated that they had been in a car accident and 449 respondents said that they had not been in a car accident. If one of these respondents is randomly selected, what is the probability of getting someone who has been in a car accident? Round to the nearest thousandth, if necessary
