My current folk wisdom is that only three things reduce automobile vs cyclist incidents. More cyclist means less incidents (per capita). Something about safety in numbers and culture adjusting to new reality. More mom cyclists. Something about perception management, where hard core cyclists trigger resentment and mom cyclists gets automobilists to calm down. Set asides for cyclists. The Dutch model. I haven't experienced it, so take with salt grains. The half measures in my city may have helped, but mostly they still suck. Too many "railroad crossings", broken continuity.
