Just to be clear, I specifically mentioned public road.
Driving on a closed track is completely different business.
While definitely not as crazy dangerous as some people would paint it, I don't feel you can ever drive as a sport and be completely safe.
Driving as a sport is by definition pushing the boundary on how close you can get to crash so if you are good at driving it means you are getting closer and closer to the limit.
I think this is confirmed by how many professional drivers died in crashes. And it seems the better you are the higher the chance you will die in a crash.
