I've only been hit by a car once, and it was dull and rainy out. On a sunny day in the exact same circumstances it probably wouldn't have have happened. I didn't get hurt but they did taco the front wheel of my bike.

In my car in the same time, I've been involved in three minor bumps and benders, and one major accident where an uninsured driver plowed into the back of my car at a red light, totalling it.

So at least in my experience, you're more likely to get hit by a car when you're driving a car, than when you're riding a bike.
