If in the meantime there's some ice on the road, or some spilt diesel fuel and you can't recover from it, tough.

Doesn't seem correct to me.
You know I have been driving for more than 20 years and never spun of the road or ended up in one of these skids from ice or spilt fuel, neither has my wife. I wonder if perhaps that is because I operate the car inside the 'normal' driving envelope rather than trying to pretend I am Damon Hill?

The same can be said for flying, I have managed a bit over three thousand hours and have yet to accidentally end up in a spin or even a spiral dive. In fact I have never accidentally diverged from normal flight.
