That’s all great, but it will also shorten your life span. People drive like shit and if you’re on the road with them every day you’re going to get hit sooner or later. The odds aren’t great. I would only do this in a place with separate bike lanes.

It’s true. It can be dangerous riding a bike on a road meant for cars. Some accidents happen even when the bicyclist or car driver made no obvious mistakes.

    Getting hit by a car while on a bicycle is considerably more dangerous.

Sitting in a car also shortens your life and exercise extends your life. You have to weigh the benefits against the risk. There is a lot you can do to avoid getting hit by cars.

  Biking to work is not the only way to get exercise though.
