I ride defensively, have 150 ft or more space around me. Once a while if I make some mistakes how small it is, I always reflect back and keep it in mind. Fall down on a motorcycle sucks big time and small mistakes are plenty.
One 71 yrs old rider told me he followed a sport car on long lonely desert highway at 160 MPH on a FZ1, someone waved at him, he waved back and the wind almost ripped off his arm. And he rode for 50 yrs with titanium rod in his leg
He told me, the chance of accident is the same as car .... but accident on motorcycle is nasty no matter the speed.
