Thanks a lot for making me aware of transportation safety statistics, it&#x27;s a fascinating topic. And I really was surprised to see that death rates for passenger cars are only about an order of magnitude worse than train&#x27;s.<p>I just wanted to note, that  planes have a several times lower death rate than trains: 0.07 per billion passenger miles according to the sources I&#x27;ve seen. Maybe this could be a hint that safety in trains could still be improved?
