You can compare them. Ok if you are being pedantic you need to compare the airline, route, plane model and weather characteristic's with an equivalent car journey route, car model, mechanical
condition and driver experience and mental fortitude.
But in general planes are way safer than cars.
If you are 40, perfect vision, sober as a saint in a modern safe car and drive mostly on highways at safe speeds you are still safer in a plane.

You can’t compare a plane journey with a car journey; they’re not interchangeable. Most miles for people are just to and from work - planes can’t just replace all those journeys, even if you sum them up to some ridiculously large number.
If that’s wrong, then explain which pilot + aircraft combo you think is equivalent to the “typical” suburban car journey.
