Every time you put your trousers on you take a risk.. Riding a bike instead of a car is another huge risk. Life is full of danger and you just get on with it.
You would say, "well I have to put my trousers on to leave the house".
Some would say it's safer not to so just stay in bed and hide under the duvet.
That's not an option for most though is it. It's a necessary risk. For many an overlander, the dangers of foreign lands is an educated risk and it's not an option for many to hide under their duvet.
Is it fair to put the police/army etc at risk by doing more dangerous things ??
No one joins the army thinking they might never get shot at. No one joins the police thinking they'll never be put into dangerous situations with criminals.
It's an educated risk they take too. They could of become paper shuffler or website designers instead if they wanted a safer life.
