> I did this for transportation - to try and convince my wife that driving a car was not, in fact, safer than biking. I don't remember the absolute numbers, but biking and walking were the lowest risk of death or serious injury per mile traveled for personal transportation, and nearly the same (the Williamsburg colonists were onto some with their walking helmets).
I would suspect this is highly variable based ont he location.. Biking in the city is far more dangerous than through the woods or in the suburbs I suspect.
Moreover it would vary greatly from city to city. Cities with guarded bike lanes would probably be quite safe whereas cities that require cars to occupy the same space as bikes are likely very dangerous.
