According to the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center, cyclists injured on the road in 2012 was about 49,000. On top of that a lot of states do not allow cyclists on the side walk. However over nine million people in the United States use their bicycles as transportation because they can't afford any other way. In Vancouver, they have implemented separated bike lanes for cyclists to ride freely and safely. In the first nine months they have seen accidents go down 18% and more people riding their bikes because they feel safer. If the United States implement secluded bike lanes we can help the environment and limit injuries all over the country.
