in the case of GA flying is more dangerous than driving. On average someone dies in a GA accident in the US everyday!
Bit of a non-sequitur, don't you think, unless fewer people are killed, each day, driving?

That I would find hard to believe!

Anyway, it's a crude comparison at best; it doesn't compare like with like.

Deaths per year per million occupant/miles would be a better number to know.
