Likely: having a high probability of occurring or being true : very probable
So it’s subjective.
7% chance to have your face ripped open, do you consider it to be likely enough to take it into consideration when buying a helmet? If you had a 7% chance to crash every time you ride would you continue riding?
7% of the time is a tendency
“Tends to” implies that it’s more likely to happen than not.
Nope, it means something has a tendency to happen.
