Researchers have found that almost all road users break the law, but the reasons for the infractions differ between modes, with cyclists doing it to save their necks.
I quoted the study, which is a study of self-reported, hypothetical intentionality that doesn’t “prove” anything. Again, I cycle, and recognize the dangers cars pose and how irresponsible many drivers are, as well as the deficiencies in our infrastructure for transit.
This is my anecdotal but genuine experience, I see cyclists blow through stop signs and red lights at full speed on a weekly basis, where I can count the number of cars I’ve seen act similarly over the past 5 years on one hand. This is absolutely not done for safety reasons and is dangerous.
