Address collision won't occur. It will be a billionth of billionth of a billionth chance, that an address may collide. Further, the address is backed by public key and private keys. Those keys must be different even if an address collide with another. No need to worry or think about the collision problem. The ECD curve is much larger than the scope we're imagining.
