A Trident missile is called an SLBM, not an ICBM. You have to learn your birds. Our ICBMs are not mobile.
Actually, I worked at a company that built ICBMs.
It is not risky when the risk elements have been attended to (no warhead, instant destruction if the flight deviates from spec, launch control from a distant bunker). But everybody has to do their part (stay out of the downrange). Driving down the freeway at 60 mph is risky, but nobody seems to mind. Your opinion is uninformed by 60 years of safe operations.
