Ask it to look for high-speed train crashes globally over the past 15 years (to include the 2013 one in Spain as well) to be honest I don’t remember any HS accidents other than the three in Spain so, odds or not, I am NOT taking a high speed train in Spain ever.

You're still much safer taking the train than a car, even in Spain, even in 2026. So good luck flying everywhere, as that seems to be the only safer transportation mode :)

And even when taking the car in Spain, you're about half as likely to be in a mortal accident compared to taking the car in the US, so depending on what you're comparing with, you might be safer in Spain regardless of what transportation method you use.
