If you bother reading enough of the dead-cyclist reports, you'll see that a disturbing number of them are on sidewalks, wide shoulders protected by aggressive rumble strips, and other places were they should have been safe. Sidewalks are only a deterrent, and at the cost of endangering the people who actually belong there.
