It’s selfish to want to protect yourself? I guess it literally is selfish. But I’m not increasing my actual risk for some hypothetical reduction of everyone else’s risk. Semis, buses, industrial vehicles all share the same road I’m on, so why would I shrink my vehicle?
And isn’t it selfish for people to insist on riding their bicycles on the roads? Why is their willingness to increase their own risk my problem? I’m not asking them to ride bikes. They make that choice.
By the way, there is about 12k drunk driving deaths each year about about 850 cycling-auto deaths each year. Let ban alcohol if we really cared about safety.
