People jump in front of the NYC subways multiple times per week in an attempt to commit suicide, how often do you read about the train engineers going to prison for that? Literally never. If someone tries to commit suicide by jumping in front of your car then you're generally not legally liable, as long as you're not intoxicated and you pull over immediately and phone it in.

First, I assume the rules for trains are different than for cars. Second, I expect that someone jumping in front of your car is different than running over a cyclist in a bike lane.
