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.
- kelipso 6d agoThat’s not how the brain works. It is evolutionary adapted to stay alert for out of distribution events.
- estearum 6d agoCorrect, and by the time an out of distribution event happens in a car, you are milliseconds from collision (if that). Most car accidents are effectively instantaneous. The fact your brain perks up as a bumper is coming through your side window is not very helpful.
