The rate might be higher, but the cluster effect is completely different.
If you're in traffic, the only people you can "spread" a car accident to are the other cars around you. But with infectious disease, you have a chance of spreading it to everybody you contact, all day every day.
You can't sit near somebody on the bus who transmits car accidents to you. Nor can you get in a car accident because your child caught it from school from a classmate whose parent got it from somebody they work with.
Statistically it might make sense, but that's not how the real world works. Lies, damned lies, and statistics.
