False. In my city right on red kills people every year, but there has only been one bike that killed a pedestrian in 40 years and even that seemed like a weird fluke if you read about it
No you right wing troll I walk around my city and see white bikes which symbolize people killed by morons like you, new ones all the time. I see the articles about who they were as people. And I've also read about the only person killed since the 80s by a bike. She was an elderly woman.
No one gives a single fuck about your efforts to make sure the world stays terrible. Leave Lemmy.
Lololol you are literally arguing over data from the nhta, a government agency designed and traffic safety, and that makes me right wing? Lemmy in a nutshell. I call for pragmatic policy and get screeched at as a trumper. Unhinged delusional behavior, arguing against the nhtsa.
We should advocate for having dedicated biking lanes to reduce these kinds of accidents, and redesign intersections to create a buffer space between pedestrian and bicycle crossing areas.
While fatalities are rare to the point of non-existence, it’s certainly a fair concern that bicyclists have too much difference in speed and maneuverability from pedestrians, risking too many accidents/injuries. That’s why we separate them: bicycling is not allowed on sidewalks
