The City Ratings score relies on data about streets, speed limits, bike infrastructure, and destinations documented in OpenStreetMap, a crowd-sourced map of the world. You can help improve our data by updating OpenStreetMap.

Ah, so it's a data crunching exercise that doesn't actual take into account real world experiences of users. No amount of computer generated scoring is going to tell you the issues I and others have already presented. Saying "everything is fine" is just an excuse not do to anything except spend hundreds of millions more on roads.
