> as a pedestrian you should almost never have to share a space with bicycles These collisions are mostly at intersections, which aren't avoidable on a flat surface you would need to go 3D. I'm in favor of raised sidewalks for pedestrians, but they are relatively pricey infrastructure. Edit: > That no fatalities bit is the crucial part. Globally I think the rates are quite a bit lower.

Cyclist only kill about 4 pedestrians per year in the US, but cyclists are also vastly less common especially on a per mile basis. https://www.nationalworld.com/news/politics/pedestrians-killed-dangerous-cyclists-road-deaths-3812845 https://www.nationalworld.com/news/politics/pedestrians-kill... To be clear I don't this says as much about bikes as it does the biased population of people currently using them.
