Lolo, I can't give you full figures right now, but essentially, more cyclists equals more safety. Collision rates in Paris went down considerably. Yes, some 'new' people will crash, but overall, compared to the number of additional trips made, the risk will go down. It will transform the city's appearance quite considerably. It's cycling as a form of urban public transport.
