I think drivers are probably better than they were 20+ years ago, problem is the tyres and cars handle sooo much better these days.

In the "old days" you couldn't carry as much speed through a corner before the car lost control, modern cars and tyres mean motorists are going much faster through a turn at the point they loose control and do much more damage to themselves.
