Without reading the entire report, the statistics from table 6.2 stand out:
For 2009 there was an increase in reported accidents of 15% compared to 2008 and it really stands out from all the other groups. It also shows that cyclists have the lowest change compared to the
94-98 average.
Not that I'm surprised considering how little attention the government pays to cyclists and their safety but that doesn't make it acceptable.
