Every kid knows that it's more fun to ride a bike than sit on the bus or ride to school in their parents’ car.
Besides riding for fun, riding to school is good for the air, good for one's health and helps with the fight against child obesity.
Choosing a safe bicycle route to school is different from choosing a safe walking route --- bicyclists and pedestrians have different needs for maximum safety. The higher speed of bicyclists increases the need for visibility, smooth surfaces and predictable interaction with other road users.
Note also that bicycle skills vary among students more than walking skills do, and they are usually acquired at a later age. Younger children have less skill at estimating closing speed for automobiles and have less ability to process peripheral vision. Younger children should therefore cycle mainly on less complicated streets, where they can focus on one hazard at a time. Older students will cycle faster, and so they need to have longer sight...
