Cycling Infrastructure and Olympic Modern Pentathlon (II)

Extensive bicycle path systems may be found in some cities. Such dedicated paths often have to be shared with in-line skaters, scooters, skateboarders, and pedestrians. Segregating bicycle and automobile traffic in cities has met with mixed success, both in terms of safety and bicycle promotion. At some point the two streams of traffic inevitably intersect, often in a haphazard and congested fashion. Studies have demonstrated that, due to the high incidence of accidents at these sites, some such segregated schemes can actually increase the number of car-bike collisions.

Bicycles are considered a sustainable mode of transport, especially suited for urban use and relatively shorter distances when used for transport compared to recreation. Case studies and good practices from European cities and some worldwide examples that promote and stimulate this kind of functional cycling in cities can be found at Eltis, Europe's portal for local transport.

A number of European countries, including Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Sweden, apply a strict liability towards cyclists, protecting them. For example in the Netherlands, the law assumes the stronger participant is liable in the case of an accident with a weaker participant unless it can be proved that the cyclist's behavior could not have been expected.
