Or, how about the analogy of the man who keeps on writing to the Council about how dangerous the junction outside his house is and the Council keep politely replying that they actually made changes to that junction which caused it to be much safer than it used to be and it is now statistically safer than other similar junctions.
Then, one day, there's a crash at the junction so the man writes a furious letter to the Council saying "I told you so!". Completely ignoring the fact that at any given junction there will be crashes from time to time.
