It's also pure unadulterated hogwash. Even in the USA cycling for transportation is safe. My neighbors do not want to kill me for riding in the lane.
Of course it's not your neighbors... it's the kid down the road that just got his license and a vintage Mustang and has the Facebook page that says "bicycle geeks must die."
