As reported by Popular Science, according to the government of Great Britain which tracks deaths per billion passenger-miles, data from 1991 to 2000 showed the following rates:
- airplane - 0.02
- boat - 0.4
- bus - 0.4
- rail - 0.49
- car - 3.1
- bicycle - 42
- foot - 59
- motorcycle - 106
I'm planning to bike 150 to 200 miles in a few weeks...
