Do you realize that at least half of the bike accidents don't involve cars? Getting rid of the cars won't get rid of the dangers of the two wheeled, unstable machines that frequently toss the riders when the brakes lock.

- pornel 2y agoPage 18 of that report shows 80% of injuries are from cars/trucks/motorcycles. People can still faceplant badly, but getting rid of cars will avoid the vast majority of fatal crashes.
- xhkkffbf 2y agoI'm not sure where you're getting this. This link doesn't have pages and it gathers information from a variety of sources. The top of the report clearly says, "50% of crashes are a single bicycle accident (HOPE)" and "21% of crashes are a bicycle-bicycle crash (HOPE)". Is it possible that only 29% involve cars?
