        And there we are, same mentality as car drivers…

        I don’t know we’re you live, but bikes going through stops or pedestrians passages without slowing down is not a problem from the pedestrians.

      Injury danger in a crash is roughly proportional to mass as well, and a car is going to be 20x heavier than a bike or more. A fast bike can be a problem, but not nearly as much as a car.
