So 14/1 pedestrian deaths Cars vs bikes. REALLY THAT BAD!!!??? Per mile traveled this makes bikes look like oldster killing machines.
Tiny sample-I'm assuming nationally 14/1 isn't the ratio??
Anyone have national numbers car pedestrian deaths vs bicycle pedestrian deaths.
Guessing most bike pedestrian deaths are of oldsters- fragile,less agile slower-like the recent SF death.
Now serious injuries should be much more favorable for bikes-lotta car pedestrian injuries.

Anyone have national numbers?
Here are some recent NYNY numbers-it is a pedestrian biking city-waaaay more than average walking/riding.
"In New York City, four pedestrians were killed in bike-pedestrian accidents from 2001-2005. From 2006-2010, while cycling in the city doubled, three pedestrians were killed in such accidents.Found some numbers"
Also 130 pedestrian killed by MV in 2011-think this doesn't include bike riders

NYNY cars vs bike 130/1 or 151/1
Not sure if any of the 21 bike deaths were single vehicle-run into wall, parked cars, fell off bike-didnt say-might have been 2-3 maybe
This NYNY >100/1 kill ratio seems about right-SF 14/1 must be just a blip for last year

NYNY 21 bicycle riders killed 2011-perhaps the increased deaths are due to texting while driving?
NYNY 13 bicycle riders killed 2009
