St. Louis, unlike areas such as Columbia, Mo., has no pedestrian advocacy groups. Instead, bicycle groups like the St. Louis Bike Federation often end up addressing pedestrian issues.

Bob Foster of the Bike Federation is on the streets a lot as a cyclist, and he has his own theory for the dangers there.

"Driver's ed has pretty well disappeared - there's very little driver's ed going on in the schools now," he said. "There's a whole generation of drivers who don't know that bicyclists are allowed on the road."
