Look at it another way. As the probability of your death is 100%, then the probability of dying not whilst commuting to work is 99.5%
Or another way, that 0.5% is a lifetime risk, so given 40 years of commuting to work, that a risk of 0.0125% per year.
Or yet another way, population statistics are meaningless at the individual level.
