This is equally true for standard bicycles, roller skates, skate boards, mobility scooters and even walking. And it's worse on the roads where those same half-blind 80-year-olds are driving multi-ton cars and SUVs.

Don't let that stop you from enjoying bicycling though. Just be aware that there are risks involved and you have to ride (or walk) defensively.
