There's more of a spectrum than simply being alive or dead. What are you going to do with a broken femur or pelvis? As for being hit from behind, as a motorcyclist this is one of my greatest fears - consider how often cars get rear-ended! As such, I actually feel that at traffic lights it is safer to lane split, as this also helps me get in front of the cars once the light goes green.
