Dangerous as a pedestrian though - especially if you aren't used to it!

yes, I wanted to add that remark as well, especially because the topic is about kids. But I didn't.

And of course bicycles are far less dangerous than any car. So there is no reason to complain or criticise this great achievement.

Yes, it wasn't meant so much as a criticism as a caveat.

It is a bullshit caveat. Bikes are orders of magnitude less dangerous than cars for children.
