If it is ridiculous to compare drones to cars, it is also ridiculous to compare drones to kites. All three have different risk profiles. To have something that could weigh the same as a bowling ball fall on you is different than a kite on the end of a string. 55 pounds isn't tiny in this context.

That being said, cars are clearly the most dangerous of the three. But they are what we are most dependent on as well.
