For what is worth, I remember when seatbelts were about to become mandatory in my country as a kid and people argued exactly that. They weren't feeling unsafe in the first place to want to go through the inconvenience. It took a lot of traffic cop posts and fines until people got the habit rather than a rational argument about small chances which people are bad at reasoning about.

Though in all fairness that's the same country that is at the bottom of the vaccination charts and top of the deaths charts in Europe and due to corrupt government there's an abnormal distrust in authority there.
