I appreciate your argument but running down a railroad track at 70 mph in a blinding fog not know if some gasoline tanker or some log truck is hung-up on the next crossing you might be coming too is pretty frightful in itself.

Agreed, but it's still apples and oranges.

If a train hits a logging truck, it's a tragedy, and it creates a log jam for shipping.

If two fully loaded 757s collide in mid air, 500 people die, people question flying, the economy is affected on a micro level, with a ripple effect, etc.
