Bikes: Some bikes. Hell, they're all the same, ain't they?

Hmm...

There are a lot of other factors that can be worked into ped fatalities, though. I'll bet that there aren't as many people in, say, Talbot Co. that would throw themselves in front of a bus just to collect injury settlement payments from the bus company. Maybe the cops in PG County are more concerned with violent crime than sitting around with radar guns.
