It's funny how the exact same "Bicyclists don't respect any rules and are always at fault"-attitude exists here in Finland. Yet it turns out that drivers are at fault in 70% of all bike-car crashes.

Note, however, that few of (fatal) accidents are with cars. Cars do injure bicyclists, but lorries and buses are the deadly ones. For some reason, cyclists focus on opposing cars, not on reducing bike-LGV accidents.
