Not that you've been listening, but I'm saying that the risk to others posed by cyclists and pedestrians doing the equivalent of jaywalking is minuscule compared to the dangers we as a society tolerate from cars day after day.

Making as big a deal of it as you have been is insane. Your thinking is no different than those who argue that vaccines are dangerous due to increased incidence of autism. Even _if_ it were true, its importance is still overwhelmed by the sheer number of lives saved compared to the alternative.
