As the statistics show!
@fudge - download the document - go to page 70 - after the table it goes on to explain that section. It might not even be on road. it might be kids falling off bikes and cutting their heads open or breaking their arms. It might be me falling on my arse at Whites Row Car Park. If the location is not stated it goes into the stats as a road accident. The full table has the police stats too and this section is virtually none (well who calls the police just cos they fell off their bike?), but the vehicular accidents roughly tally.
@hippy, yes it's bicycle collisions, because we were talking of cyclists perception of their own safety, and it's relevant. I don't think there is a similar chart for motorcycles in that doc.
