The scientific data on that must exist somewhere.
People who do insurance know all this data.
My point is that when you go to the hard data what do you see?
The tendency towards "Pre-Crime" thinking assumes the unlikely is the certain.
We know a car has speed and mass and can kill.
But what do we know about bicycles killing 15 people in a big crowd?
