There are degrees of danger in most, if not all activities on this planet: mobile phone towers, mobile phones, aluminium smelters, driving a car under the influence, being a passenger in a car whose driver is driving under the influence, being in a car that is being followed by another car whose driver is driving under the influence etc etc etc.
