UK: 22 deaths per bn miles cycled

Holland: 29 deaths per bn miles cycled

So why do we want to follow the Dutch model?

If the 1 in 6 of cyclists that are killed in single-vehicle accidents are
excluded, the UK death rate would be about 14 per bn miles,

Note

- UK data is for 2022

- Dutch data: deaths 2022, miles cycled 2021
