IDK where you live but no, in Europe, it virtually never happens.
I will speak for France but the latest “big/mediatic” accidents were two (probably) Russian sabotages with not a lot of victims.
Then back to 2015 in Eckwersheim where a test train derailed on track trial (dramatic but no commercial passengers and the train was overspeeding voluntarily for the trial, even if it was an error).
Other than that we need to get back to 2013 to find the Brétigny-sur-Orge derailment.
Other accidents regularly happen but except from Bretigny derailment, I don’t remember passengers being killed in the last decades.
No one ever died as a commercial passenger of a TGV and hundreds are running at 320km/h every day since half a century. A few conductors died from a collision even that, in 45 years of service, is anecdotal (from a safety perspective, of course not for the victims).
So, no, Spain does seem to have a big issue.
