Allysen Responds: However, it might be interesting to find out how many fatal bike/car crashes that there are in India in urban areas, if we were to use that as an example of bike and automobiles existing together.

Thanks for the great imput, Barb. As I mentioned a few months ago, the Greenway near Lake Street is wonderful for daytime commuting. But given the reality of crime and crime containment zones in Minneapolis, I'd much rather be riding by way of Lake Street at night.--------Peter Schmitz CARAG --- Barbara Lickness <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Everyone seemed to get around there just fine and there were 18,000,000 people in the city at that time. There was just a lot more horn honking. Seems to me Minneapolis can figure out a way for cars, buses and bikes to share the road.
