The Killing Zone
Again I would reiterate others comments. This book is a good read although it unnerved my girlfriend.
Statistics can prove and dissprove anything because of course you drive much more than you fly in most peoples cases so you should be extremely experienced yet we still have loads of accidents on the roads, both minor and serious.
In flying (I know from my personal experience) that regular flying makes you a better pilot but we get much much less chance to practice.
If you compare apples with apples there and compare 1000 pilots with 100 hours experience with 1000 drivers with 100 hours experience I bet the stats are very different. I know from my days as an insurance broker that the rate that inexperienced drivers crash is far higher than the experienced drivers.
All that said the car crashes usually hurt much less I suspect!
