Do you mean the roads are well planned for car trafic or for pedestrian/bicycle trafic? What I usually hear from visitors in our Swedish town is that it's much safer to bike than in their home town. Areas built after 1970 or so was planned for pedestrian first, car second. This has resulted in very few trafic accidents. You can get almost everywhere outside of the city center without sharing road with cars, only crossing at dedicated bicycle crossings or bridges over/under the road.
The most dangerous situation I can think of would still be where cars cross a bicycle road after doing a left or right turn in a crossing and not checking for trafic on the bicycle road.
