Comparing the danger of various modes of transportation

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...
