    U.S. I use to bike but was hit by someone. I just use a stationary bike now. We don’t have bike lanes in my area older area. I never ride in road. I was hit at a stop sign when a car ran it.

      That’s why the idaho stop is important. But if there are no lanes then that’s probably why people ride in the road… and if you do ride in the road it’s much much more dangerous to bike to the side as people will try and pass you in an unsafe way instead of respecting your bikes legal standing as a vehicle on the road
