Then some will trot out the "yeah but I'm in control of the car" argument. Pure bunk. You're not in control of the 17 million other cars on the road. Fact is flying is safer, period.

its not how often you die , its HOW you die.
In a car crash you usually don't know what to expect except for a split second beforehand.
If your wing breaks off during flight you will have a long time before you crash
