Safety in numbers is the hypothesis that, by being part of a large physical group or mass, an individual is less likely to be the victim of a mishap, accident, attack, or other bad event. Some related theories also argue (and can show statistically) that mass behaviour (by becoming more predictable and "known" to other people) can reduce accident risks, such as in traffic safety – in this case, the safety effect creates an actual reduction of danger, rather than just a redistribution over a larger group.
Description
Evidence often advanced for this position includes the flocking of birds and schooling of fish. In both of these instances, by being part of a large group, individuals face less risk of falling victim to predators than they would if traveling alone.
In road traffic safety
Safety in numbers is also used to describe the evidence that a motorist is less likely to collide with a pedestrian or cyclist as the numbers of pedestrians or bicyclists increase. This non-linear relationship was first shown at intersections.
A Public Health Consultant showed this non-linear relationship also occurs at in cities and countries using ecologic data from cities in California and Denmark, and European countries, and time-series data for the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. He termed this relationship "safety in numbers."
Safety In Numbers is Umphrey's McGee's fourth studio album, released on April 4, 2006. Huey Lewis and Joshua Redman both make appearances. The album contains many slower, acoustic songs and a simpler, stripped down approach with little jamming or progressive rock elements. The artwork for the album was done by Storm Thorgerson.

Lyrics:
Verse 1
Hidden agendas
I'm forced to remember
But forget to a lesser degree
What they mean to me
Every time you go by I'm naked
From these eyes I can tell your faking
Won't take much covering of the make up
Take it out on the ones you love
Chorus
Safety in numbers take shelter
You get what you give and you know
About people less certain
Safety in numbers we roll
Verse 2
I'll be your cushion
(The tones you initiate)
Your safety from falling
(Make me wanna leave this place)
Safety in numbers
(Dissipate on our way)
To answer your calling
(I won't understate)
Delusions in hand making a plan you meant well
I won't receive all that you give its nature

South - "Safety In Numbers" (live at The Adventure Club With Josh)
It was recorded in LA and I remember that I'd really liked some of their earlier recordings. One of the best things about the remote Adventure Club LA to Dallas was the access I had to so many British bands.

Show me the way They say safety in numbers I lift up my eyes to the sky And imagine a crowd Of hearts that surround me And give the me courage to die Were you to weep And lie at my feet Then you'd wash all my troubles away And imagine the host Of angels around me
