How many pilots fly with a minimum vectoring altitude chart? Do any modern flight deck displays have the capability of displaying a minimum vectoring altitude chart on the navigation display?

Suspecting the answer is none, do all professional pilots accept that the ATC vectoring altitude is safe and believe that they won't be the next one ATC drives into a hill?

Maybe TAWS is assumed to be adequate protection from controller error.

I was curious about the availability of a minimum vectoring altitude chart for my area. I found a PDF graphic and an XML coordinates file neither of which could I associate with a sectional or low altitude IFR chart.
