Where I live there are almost no bike lanes, not even the shitty painted ones. How dangerous is it to get on the road with all of the other cars?

Depends on where you are.

How busy are the roads you want to ride on? Are there other bikers? What days/times do you want to ride at? Are there a lot of accidents or few relative to other cities? How comfortable are you on a bike?

Answering these and other questions for yourself can let you know how dangerous or not it is.
