The general opinion in professional flying is that the pilot and operator (for something like Airhart the owner would be both I guess?) decision making has an immense impact on safety. You don't typically have a two sided crash where some other party is at fault like in a car. The vast majority of general aviation accidents happen because of bad deciding making. So it's much more in your control.
While the stats may conclude "loss of control" as the cause of the accident. Often that loss of control is caused by for example the decision to fly into instrument conditions (bad weather) while the aircraft or pilot is not suitably equipped, trained and experienced for it.

However, increasing the number of things in the air will likely shift that, at least a little bit. Things at uncontrolled fields can get busy with just a handful of aircraft in the pattern. Add a hot-head and the safety factor drops significantly.

WX is never in your control. Just like anything in life, you can make all the right decisions and still die. It's just that aviation is less forgiving than the rest of our lives so (inevitable) mistakes matter more.
