It’s entirely possible you’ve seen roughly as many of each—yet many of those cars were on the road next to you, whereas the planes were probably on another continent, transmitted to you via the Internet or television.

In contrast, the number of people in the United States killed in car accidents over that same time is greater than the entire population of Wyoming.

God help us if they begin to interact.
