Right now I'm living and riding in NYC, so my location reads, New York, New York but I'll be back in Boston, my usual place of residence and while I think much of your post is accurate parts of it may be unintentionally misleading.

Buzzman is correct, my cycling has ventured beyond my present location and also includes decades of riding in Philadelphia, another city laid out prior to the invention of cars. Also 10 years of cycling in Germany. As well as cycling in other locations far from home.
The rest of Buzzman's post is also accurate in its criticism of igknighted misleading comments on the risks of urban cycling.
