I've stated this before, but nearly every trip I've taken it's the first half hour that's the
most dangerous, simply till I get out of the bad freeway traffic. Wilderness travel seems
much safer to me than the morning commute. During deer season I move quickly away from the roads. A half mile back I can relax (and watch all the deer calmly feeding!).
Yeah, I did some really dumb things climbing and caving as a kid. Most kids do dumb things.
So to be fair, I'd have to include myself as a potential travel hazard!
