I had 3 of my coworkers killed in Chicago in last 2 years. One to to drunk driver, 2 to visibility issues( one was extreme downhill curve where a cyclist would suddenly appear out of nowhere. Other was a truck making a left turn between two cars, no way the truck driver could have seen the cyclist) .
Only people with a deathwish would ride a bike on streets shared by other vehicles.
Don't be stupid, think of your family.
