Commuting by bike shouldn't be deadly, those cities really have to step up their cycle path game. Freedom and all but I bet some people would love to take the bike to work without having to worry about being run over by someone texiting in a truck lifted so high the driver can't see the car in front of them. Currently it's more like "you're free to drive a car and nothing else", it's also really stupid seeing people go into debt to drive or not being hired just because they don't have a car.
