Yes, your statement is rubbish.
Your saying roads are dangerous all the time is meaningless. Your saying guns are dangerous is meaningless.
I'll go along with that. So "the road" is not dangerous then.
True. So "the gun" is not dangerous then.
No. The gun is no more or less dangerous with or without a safety catch.
Yes. The "user" is the only one capable of creating the danger. The road-gun-field-chainsaw-blancmange-banana is required for the danger to be created by the user but it is not and cannot be dangerous in and of itself.
No it isn't. It is a statement of fact.
Roads do play a role in road safety. That is a subject, not an enbreasty.
Then you'll be wrong every time time you omit it. If what you type is an absolute statement, "the road is dangerous" then that is what you say. There is no shorthand about it.
