People are more scared of burglary than car crashes.
- mikeash 11y agoWhich is probably justified. There are a couple of million burglaries per year in the US (many/most of which will affect multiple people), and only about 30,000 traffic fatalities per year. And a good chunk of those fatalities are either easily avoidable by passengers (wear your seat belt!) or unavoidable even by drivers (getting whacked by a drunk driver).
