[QUOTE="Cute Tink, post: 58501691, member: 5363"] I have since addressed the only actual point stated against me, that there are no stats on how far bicyclists ride, so there is no way to determine what the actual danger per mile ridden there is for bicyclists. However, there are really no stats on the danger per mile ridden in cars for kids. We only know the total miles cars travel, which says nothing about how long kids are in the car, in turn making the number of child deaths per total miles equally meaningless. The rest of the posts against my point are largely opinion and guesswork. That doesn't make it any more valid than my opinion and guessing, other than the fact that I actually looked up the numbers pertaining to the discussion and added that to my own personal experience before freaking out because a handful of children get injured or die on bikes each year and entertain the idea that it qualifies as child neglect to let your child ride a bike.
