It's an attitude one adopts to increase ones safety, not a 100% guarantee that you'll always be safe.
But the thing is with very few exeptions for almost anything you do you'll be putting some part of your safety in someone else's hands. Usually it's not as blatent as a tandum skydive or an amusement park ride, but on the road you are trusting that other road users are going to abide by a certian set of rules. If they don't you could get hurt.... Does that mean you stop riding?
In sport when people don't adhere to the rules someone gets hurt, so buy your guys resoning if i'm playing rugby and someone picks me up and dumps me on my head, it was my fault for not realising that they were not going to tackle me legitimantly and so I should accept resonsibility. Not bloody likely.
Lump lingered last in line for brains,
And the ones she got were sort of rotten and insane...
