A recent report from the League of American Bicyclists says more pedestrians and bicyclists died in 2016 than at any time in the past 25 years.
The group’s 2018 Benchmarking Report — which was issued last month and flagged by Outside magazine — says pedestrian and bicyclist death rates also continue to outpace those of all other traffic fatalities, despite high-profile efforts such as the Vision Zero initiative in New York, Washington, Los Angeles and other cities that aim to reduce such deaths.
