Six in ten people are still too afraid to cycle in their area. Fear of mixing in traffic is a crucial barrier preventing people from getting on a bike — especially in busy cities. ARAS can help the bike industry capture new segments, particularly commuter cyclists, where the element of fear is highest. In most countries, people will wait years for perfect cycling infrastructure. Meanwhile, technology is already here that can play a huge role in bridging that gap, helping everyone feel safer as they move through their city."
