It’s hard to comprehend how things have simply inflated over the years. We’re dealing with massive numbers now, compared to 1970-1980…
That being said, even with the much higher numbers, we should consider the fact that as the numbers have gone up, so has safety technology.
So the cars should be expected to be safer year over year. The percentage of failures should be less.
That being said, just because it’s a smaller percentage doesn’t necessarily mean that we shouldn’t care about it happening.
In the end, I find your comment to be very useful in gaining a bit of perspective. While it might not fundamentally change my opinion, or anyone else’s, it’s good to understand the magnitude of these numbers, in comparison to the overall volume of vehicles out there.
