I would love for you to consider why you think traffic accidents are not controllable or worth considering, but violence is controllable and worth considering.
You already know, I hope, that it's much more risky to your life to drive in a car than take the subway. You could consider all sorts of regulations or laws that could make driving more safe, but you only want to focus on random violent crime which is more rare and less deadly.
And motor vehicle deaths are low compared to all sorts of diseases and conditions.

I never claimed either of those things. Re-read my post, you've overlooked my central points.
