Question

A student is organizing their evidence for an argument about increasing the number of bike lanes throughout their town. One of their reasons is that adding bike lanes makes it safer for bikers to travel around town. Which piece of evidence would help support this reason? (1 point)

The addition of a bike lane would encourage more people to bike more and drive less.

Studies show that people who bike more are happier and healthier.

A bike lane would be useful because many people in town prefer to ride bikes.

Reports reveal around 700 cyclists die each year due to bike accidents.

Answer 1

"Reports reveal around 700 cyclists die each year due to bike accidents."

This statistic shows biking is currently dangerous and supports the need for measures (like bike lanes) to improve safety.
