How often do you drive drunk?

How often do you drive 70MPH or wet or icy roads?

How often do you drive recklessly? Carelessly?...

Uh, never.

What's your point?

The point is if you're trying to ascertain _your_ risk factor, you must
compare apples and oranges...both on the ground and in the air.

Your risk factor is higher (VFR only, recreastion/personal flying) and your
automobile risk factors are lower. Using general statistics won't help YOU
because you're outside the generalities that the accident stats are
picturing.
