In this episode, I explores the Peltzman effect, a behavioural phenomenon where increased safety measures lead to riskier behaviour. I discuss various examples, including driving with seatbelts, medication reliance, and financial decisions, illustrating how perceived safety can reduce caution and lead to negative outcomes. I emphasize the importance of recognizing these patterns in everyday life and making informed choices to mitigate risks.
