NYC Collisions - pedestrians vs cyclists affected

This data is from NYC Open Data. The original file covers 2012 to the present and has more than 1 million rows.

This gist also contains the R script used to process the data:

Note the reversed seasonal trends. While the cyclist injury/death follows the expected trend (due to more cyclists during warmer weather), for pedestrians the trend is reversed. This could be for a number of factors (e.g., lower light during winter, snow/ice on the ground, etc.) and warrants further investigation.
