Would make Tufte proud
This morning, reading an essay by Jeffrey Hiles on bike lanes, I was struck by this infographic, whose caption is:
Figure 8
Daytime crashes (outer circle of numbers) compared to bicyclists' perceptions (inner circle of numbers) of risk of colliding with vehicles from various directions in percent of total collisions. Source: Hoque, 1990.
Interesting that: 1) the biggest discrepancy is for being t-boned on the right; and that 2) the smallest is for being hit directly from behind, the no. 1 fear of newer cyclists when riding in traffic.
