Answer:

C) a decreased average level of safety for passengers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Traveling by airplane is still by far the most safe way to travel. The chance of being in an airplane accident (not necessarily deadly accident) is 1 in 11 million, while the chance of being in a car accident is 1 in 5,000. Flying on airplanes is not only safe, but it is becoming safer.
