Maybe you could make some sort of deal: if I really do get myself killed I promise to freely admit you were right and never disagree with anything you suggest ever again ;-)
Or my brother-in-law's approach: he replies to all directions/suggestions/ etc with a cheerful "Yes dear", and then proceeds to do exactly what he would have done w/o her input. He never argues and never has to go through the trouble of explaining why he thinks something different is a better idea. He is cheerful, warm & loving, but selectively deaf - a very popular and time-tested solution.
In the beginning this is likely to cause some discord but what the heck:
making up can be a fun pastime too ;-)
