This guy is wrong when he says the UK "has a culture of commuting on two wheels." We have a huge problem with cycle infrastructure, as evidenced by the stats he presents. Ok, London's probably decent but transport everywhere else in the country is built around cars.

Compared to Canada (where Fortnine mostly films), anywhere in the UK is cycling heaven.
Picking a country like the UK who have stats available would be fine then, but suggesting it's a better case scenario with that comment about culture is just trying to skew the conclusion. It doesn't help that the stats show a massive difference in injuries/deaths as well. By all means, everyone should choose your favoured transport, but the video really seems like FUD.
