I read the article, and as I said earlier, it focuses on maximizing flow, and it presents the safety statistics in a very abstract manner.

My questions about your source still stand. Are the reductions simply a gross reduction in pedestrian incidents, and if so, did they account at all for a reduction in total number of pedestrians?

If they did not account for these facts, then you might as well say that Toronto is some percentage more dangerous than Hamilton because they have that percentage more pedestrian accidents in total. Therefore everyone in Toronto should move to Hamilton for their own good.

The total number of pedestrians DOES MATTER.
