"Per the study, which examined a five-year stretch from 2016 to 2021, Toronto police data showed 2,362 injuries suffered by cyclists and pedestrians across the city. Meanwhile, the city’s health services data showed 30,101 emergency room visits by cyclists and pedestrians. By examining police data alone, the report says, we’d only be looking at around 8 percent of emergency room visits."
