All in all there are few major accidents if you consider the number of racers, narrow roads, public sometimes stupid, stress, media sometimes public-like, time spent on the roads and speed all in a compact pack. Things improved since the racers are radio connected. Rather often, they use ex pro riders to drive the crew cars because they know what to do what not to do and what racers will do/ need. Add a little bit of chance too. What a sport.
