What do you all think about this title? I worry speaking about the issue like this will dissuade curious riders. A big part of bike safety has to do with having others out riding as well. Looking at the source of the claim, I see way more highway orientated cities with vastly wider streets rated higher than us where I’ve tried to ride and been put in way more dangerous situations than I can even imagine here in Chicago.
Contact your alderperson about this if possible. I’m convinced most city streets should have a speed limit of 20 rather than 30. You can especially notice this near stop signs where people fail to stop because they’re trying to go 30 between signs. The slower traffic goes the less likely you are to experience injury. But this survey seems to overweigh this fact and undervalue our system that I think is pretty decent comparatively but still needs way more enhancement.
