More specifically, is it possible to use "force" with adverbs such as "accidentally" and "inadvertently"?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Tom and Mary were walking towards one another. Tom was talking on his phone and not looking where he was going. He inadvertently forced Mary to step to one side to avoid bumping into him.
