Answer
\begin{array}{l}{\text { This statement is false. Two nodes can have a collision and then pick the }} \\ {\text { same random waiting time. There will then be a second collision, and it is }} \\ {\text { possible that they will again pick the same waiting time, leading to a third }} \\ {\text { collision. Theoretically, it is possible to have an infinite number of colli- }} \\ {\text { sions, although the probability of that happening is vanishingly small. }}\end{array}
