It is a one-to-one metric.

There is no threat when the commitment of both or various parties is to the common good, as I've positioned it. A conscious threat to one party is only validated by the intentional ill regard by one or more of the other parties, which is backed by the threat of or actual perpetration of harmful conduct.

So when one party positions itself as a threat to another party an assessment for the risk of harm should be considered, until or unless a return to commitment for the mutual common good can be established. Although self defense is advisable, when commitment to the common good has broken down, no amount of well honed sabers will repair it in the long run.

Automobile crashes do not seem to me to fall under the same umbrella.
