You are avoiding cars constantly when driving with a non-zero amount of traffic. Way more incidents than predators in the savanna while doing persistence hunting.

Not sure what you're arguing.

Your brain gets used to in-distribution events.

Car accidents (and the conditions that cause them) are out-of-distribution events.

It's that simple.

  • That’s not how the brain works. It is evolutionary adapted to stay alert for out of distribution events.
