Actually, I don't think the statistics are remotely similar (at least in the UK).
In London, for instance, every single cyclist death in 2015 has been due to the cyclist getting crushed by a truck. [1]
I don't know about the US, but I suspect the statistics would be similar, at least in cities.

- fnbr 11y agoThat's a good question, and an aspect that I didn't consider. I'd be interested in hearing the answer if you find it.
