I feel in situations like this, we clamour for reason. The prospect that somebody can do everything correct and still get eaten is terrifying. We all want to be able to say it wouldn't happen to us because we're smarter or more prepared. The uncomfortable truth is sh*t happens and sometimes there's nothing you can do.

Yup. Like, every day you drive you risk something bad happening no matter what you do. And it's a much much higher risk than a camper getting killed by a bear.
