Wrong. People in cars and truck kill you everywhere. If you lose sight of that, you will soon be under their wheels.
One of the best lessons for riding a bike is to go down on it once or twice and survive. Generally it's a valuable lesson not soon forgotten.
Another good safety lesson is to see a motor cycle fatality scene close up. One has a tendency to remember that too.
When you ride, ALWAYS pretend you are invisible, and no one can see you. Then, you may have a chance.
