What's safer? Train or taxi?

Just that really.
What's safer for a ride to the airport? Taxi or the train?

Do taxi drivers still wear masks and test on a regular basis?

On many routes (particularly to/from holiday destinations, it is the Off Peak trains when you are most at risk of overcrowding.

You're far more at risk from the variable standards of driving among taxi drivers, not to mention the other idiots on the roads.

As an occupant of a car, you have a 1 in 632 chance of being the victim of a fatal crash

Not from one journey!

I'm assuming you're vulnerable? Because seriously if you know you're doing all you can to protect yourself why the worry?

Trains are less likely to crash whereas car accidents are fairly common., so I would say train is safer.
