In the last decade, two passengers have been killed in accidents on US commercial airlines. Over the same period, more than 365,000 Americans have been killed by cars.

Our roads and cars are dangerous by design.

America has the world’s safest air travel but sucks so bad at car safety

@davidho I would say roads in all parts of the world are more dangerous, than the most means of transport. Maybe some auxiliary systems are helping a little bit, but I don’t think that will solve the problem 100%. And if self-driven cars are a working solution is also questionable (at least for the next ten or fifteen years).
