Whats more dangerous? cycling? or driving?

It seems like someone is always starts this conversation with me. I always say that driving is more dangerous. I hate driving. There are a lot of reckless drivers out there and most of the time cyclists get hurt because of reckless drivers. Drunk driving, and all that as well. I don't know that's just my opinion but someone always tries to tell me that cycling is more dangerous. I guess it can go both ways though.

I enjoyed that fish-tailing bus at the 28 second mark.

Wow.

High rates of speed fueled by excessive consumption of vodka would be my guess.
