[QUOTE="Cute Tink, post: 58498786, member: 5363"] I agree as far as that goes, but when you are comparing "Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among those age 5-34 in the U.S." to "630 bicyclists died on US roads in 2009 (718 in 2008, 1,003 in 1975) 74 were 14 or younger, a reduction of 58 per cent from the 178 killed in 2000", I think the numbers themselves DO speak for themselves. Leading cause compared to 74 - a number which is falling. There is a more serious problem - a disagreement between a mother and an officer of the law in evaluating that risk and that officer abusing his authority by having the mother investigated for a serious crime based on his opinion of the situation alone.
