I'm very happy for you that you took this risk.

- Did you drive on the sidewalk? If yes, you basically transfered the risk to other walkers. - How is the infrastructure? In many countries you'll see potholes for instance. - In case of a frontal crash, what is your % estimation that none of the kids will be injured?

Why so cynical? I ride on the road (or bike trails!) and follow all traffic laws, as I've done since reaching the age of 14 or so. I don't feel any less safe using this mode of travel than I do when traveling by car. I've never hit a walker.

I'm glad that you behave like this; many don't respect those basic rules, especially with kids.
