We're often told that aviation is safer nowadays than any other form of motorized transportation. In no uncertain terms, you're more likely to harm yourself buckled into a passenger car than you are strapped into a passenger airliner. It might be easy to pass this off as hyperbole, nothing more than a successful PR campaign like so many bold claims of history.

Modern cars are laden with high-tech systems, which require millions of lines of code. Many cars also happen to be fitted with emergency response systems, which – in the event of a crash – automatically contact and send GPS coordinates to emergency responders.

Once someone determines a car will become a classic, they go out of their way to maintain it in as good condition as possible.
