Whereas the Doctor's companions (and any random strangers he comes into contact with) tend to be in the line of fire.
But it's not uncommon for innocent people to be trapped in a burning building.
Human Nature/Family of Blood was unusual in that the Doctor's presence was what drew the enemies to him. He was not, however, responsible for the Autons, Slitheen, or Krillitanes coming to Earth; he did not injure a living sun or deliberately breech the universes (except for a single phone call after everything else was over), etc. He shows up, fireman-like, after the situation has ignited, and tries to put out the flames.
