This is a statistical fact that has basically no bearing on most individuals.
Risk of death in a motor vehicle crash is affected by a ton of factors, most of them within your control.
For example I live in a walkable city and I pay attention at crosswalks. When I drive, it’s mostly daytime highway driving in a well-maintained vehicle with the driver (me) not impaired. All this alone reduces my risk by orders of magnitude.
At the same time there are people who are out there drunk driving on 2-lane roads and highways every weekend.
