  Do you know how many people in The Netherlands ride bicycles daily? A lot. I think almost everyone in the Neherlands has ride a bicycle daily some time in their life.. Having said that, in 2000, 1200 people died. So 610 deaths in 2020 doesn't seem that much. The Netherlands is one of the safest place to ride a bicycle. And continues to improve on it.

  The problem with that statistics is that it records the absolute number of people that died cycling, neither controlling for population size nor total distance cycled. That makes all conclusions drawn essentially worthless: an increase in accidents may be caused by an even larger increase in miles cycled, which would actually be a net improvement.
