Don't hook up on the wrong thing here. Everyone makes mistakes but the cyclists pay with their life. Is it a well designed system when a little mistake costs your life?
The cyclists have a better understanding and overview of the trafic sittuation so from the car drivers view it looks like they take bigger risks.
The car driver’s view is irrelevant when determining who made the mistake, only the facts of the matter. And in the vast majority of cases, it’s the car driver.
I get the impression you read "Cyclists make mistakes" and commented without reading the rest. We all agree on what you are saying. That is what I'm objecting to.
"Cyclists make mistakes, make bad judgments, take big risks, JUST LIKE CAR DRIVERS."
No, we don’t agree. The original post only pointed out cyclists as the ones making mistakes. You’re trying to both sides the issue. I’m saying that the VAST MAJORITY of mistakes are committed by drivers. Those three positions are not the same.
