incident involving a cyclist in each of the years 2005/06 and 2006/07,

In other words, the data collated by TfL and accepted by the mayor
clearly shows that bendy buses are not dangerous for cyclists.
Those figures read dangerous to me. How many bendies are there and how
many accidents involving other buses are there, and how many of them are
there?
I hate bendies because they are just too long to mix with other traffic.
