Not only that but I GUARANTEE that driving a car is more dangerous than solo circumnavigation simply because of the extreme precautions taken by circumnavigators.
Perhaps they should not try to rescue car accident victims. They are, afterall, much bigger dare devils than Abby Sunderland.

Thought what way?
If people want to participate in high risk activities requiring expensive rescue missions when they fail, they should be the ones that
at least help pay for it?
We would never progress if our society was more of a user pay system?
If that's what you're saying, I disagree, and tend to think we would be much more productive.
