Did anyone look at the Allstate Best cities rankings, from the above link? Boston is way at the bottom.

I do a lot of riding in the Boston area. I've seen no evidence whatsoever it's a real problem in Boston, and I don't think this study provides ANY evidence that it is.

And I have no idea what your link has to do with bicyclists, it's about "safe drivers." Boston has a reputation for bad drivers and completely confusing roads and intersections, so that ranking is not surprising.
