I'm often a pedestrian, and I gotta say: yes, a distracted or aggressive driver can kill ya, but it seems to me that a distracted or aggressive cyclist can still fuck you up pretty badly, and as a percentage by vehicle type I'm noticing a lot more of the latter lately

I don’t want to get maimed by mustaches. Seems like it could happen, and I’m scared by it. So - stop the mustaches.
My roommate was very recently nearly struck by a cyclist accelerating down a hill through a red light as we began to cross on our walk signal. Missed him by inches. I don't know what part of your brain you have to shut down to think that's an imaginary danger.

At no point have I suggested that cyclists are more dangerous than drivers. At no point have I suggested that people stop commuting by bike. The weird tribalism that's leading you folks to strawman me while implying that a crowbar on wheels can't hurt you is just beyond belief
