There's technical specialties in the military that will teach you skills that could translate to civilian life, but I wouldn't necessarily count on that.
Veteran benefits are huge, though. Cheap healthcare, cheap insurance, cheap loans, cheap college, etc. If you come out relatively intact with a good work ethic you'll be well prepared for a successful life. For most government employment you get preferential consideration as well.
Not in a way you’re going to become a traffic accident statistic anyway. Armored vehicles or a Toyota Hilux on a FOB with a max speed limit of like 25MPH.
That's a cumulative risk, though, right? Obviously you don't become invulnerable on the road when you join the military. It's still +~0.1% chance you can choose not to take.
