> that driving or riding in a car is probably the most risky thing that most people do all the time. And yet, we accept the risk. So this seems like a good baseline for what should be considered an acceptable risk.

For cars.

I'm very glad the FAA and airlines don't think the way you do about risk. They have their own standards. And it's perfectly consistent.

I sometime commute by skateboard, but I am NOT ok with my airlines or car companies using this choice as some sort of "acceptable risk baseline" for me.
