Drivers killed about 200 times as many people as bicyclists over a 15 year period. You are misplacing your fears.

- I care about injuries other than just fatalities
- Non-fatal injuries due to being hit by cyclists are underreported
- Those statistics are for all of NYC - the pedestrian experience in much of the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens, and all of Staten Island is similar to the pedestrian experience in suburbs - and I'd agree there my danger is greater from cars.
- Those statistics pre-date the dramatic rise of e-bikes on the streets of Manhattan
Streets with bicycle paths are a safer for pedestrians, I think there is research from NYC/Brooklyn comparing streets before and after bike paths.
