In 2018, 66 cyclists more died than in the previous year. The number of serious injuries increased to 227. There were 206 slightly injured cyclists last year, according to an analysis published on BRD24.pl. Reportedly, there were fewer accidents and fewer people wounded on Polish roads in general. only among cyclists was the increase of injuries recorded.
Longer bicycle season, allowing cycling even up to December, is the cause of such fatal data, says Łukasz Zboralski, head of the BRD24.pl portal. He added that for the past three years it has been less and less secure, and the first quarter of 2019 was "the worst in a few years".
