Target Risk_Wilde This describes an idea about risk.

The idea is that humans adjust their activities to raise or lower risk and keep the risk level

constant (at their target or 'acceptable' risk) Consequently it is extremely hard to influence

the riskiness of an activity. E.G. If we make roads 'safer' with better lighting, the drivers will

likely just drive faster and conteract the safety.
