Yeesh, that’s a basic right of way situation that you are failing to grasp. Like suggesting that someone who gets T-boned by a driver burning a red is at fault somehow. I assume you don’t live in an metropolitan area.

I think you're failing to grasp the cyclist responsibility for their own safety. I live in a city centre when at home and quiet commuter town when at work. I'm going to guess you're a cyclist who likes to blame other people whenever they hurt themselves, I'm also going to assume you don't live in either of the countries I live in so probably have different rules and different infrastructure.

I regularly use all modes of transportation. I ride and drive pretty defensively and have no issue placing blame on a cyclist when they are in violation of the traffic codes. I personally have never gotten hurt riding so no, I don’t blame others.
There are inherent risks to all forms of travel. You may not be comfortable with city cycling but many are and I don’t see how you can put blame on them when they are following the rules of the road anymore than a car suffering a similar collision.
