The commenters argument is illogical. The commenter is engaging in 2 activities. Driving a car and then taking a plane. The fact that driving a car is riskier than taking a plane does not mean that that taking a plane that is 30x riskier than other planes doesn’t affect their risk. These are 2 independent risk events. If the taking plane part of your travel schedule becomes more risky, your overall risk also rises. The fact that driving a car is extremely risky has nothing to do with what price they should be willing to pay for the increased risk they would be taking flying a riskier plane.
