While we are just having opinions on things I'll say pedestrians on their phones are the biggest danger to pedestrians of all.

Pedestrians on a phone are a danger to themselves, and can maybe cause an accident if they wander by mistake on the street. If I bump into another pedestrian I'm pretty sure I'll be fine.

A biker is a 60kg bag of meat coming at you with 15km per hour. They are completely silent and love riding on sidewalks.
