The 'attitude' I'm intending to express is that safety and law are not interchangeable. Sometimes they are in harmony, sometimes they are at odds, and sometimes they're simply completely separate concepts. This can vary from minute to minute, place to place, from one environmental condition to another and even from one driver to another. If how often someone gets in an accident is a guide as you're implying, well then I'm below the national average considering I'm halfway dead, I've been driving more years than not, and I'm definitely below the average person's accident rate of one per 18 years (sitting at zero).
