You and the poster you're responding to seem to be using a different definition of the word dangerous: the one above seems to be using more of the connotation of the word (point out that there's an acceptable level of risk involved with cars) and you're using the denotation (pointing out that people do die in cars).
To be clear, virtually every human activity is technically dangerous and there's a non-zero risk in almost any human activity. By the dictionary definition, owning a pool is technically dangerous because people drown and get hurt all of the time. Hell, a bucket causes a non-zero number of drowning deaths. People can die from blender accidents or shitting too hard or swallowing quarters or tripping to death on a power cord. Everything is technically dangerous.
