Of course people can die everyday from freak accidents but one can always minimize their risk. There is a chance one can fall and break their neck walking around the house but if you drive less and don't ski you can minimize your chances of dying from skiing or car accidents. Its all about minimizing all the risks that can lead to death. Eventually we all die but we can minimize the risk of death by living a low-risk life.
You realize most auto accidents happen within 25 miles of home, right?
