Too fast to stop and over the handlebars, bicycles are dangerous things to

This wouldn't happen if cyclists had a sheet of laminated glass in
front of them

It wouldn't have happened if (a) cyclists were trained and (b) if push
bikes were suitable vehicles for adults.

Motorists are trained and are cars suitable vehicles for adults yet
multi billion pound industries exist because they are incapable of
driving safely.

I assume you mean 'cars are'?

If you put car accidents into the context of the number of miles driven,
they are incredibly safe. Do you want me to repeat the figures & make
you look foolish again?
