Take the City of Toronto, for example, where the trnfl-lc is as heavy and con- . . [cited as in any place in Canada. The careiiill kept records of the Toronto Police epartment shows that out of a ' total of 2,173 accidents of various kinds in 1923, cyclists were only involved in 42, and 36 of these were cases of collis- ions of cyclists and pedestrians. There _ were practically no accidents between l motorists and cyclists. Cyelingin smaller cities and in the country is even nfer than in Toronto. There are good reasons _why Cycling is Safe.
