Someone on a bike isn't very likely to kill someone they didn't happen to see when they roll through a stop sign or light. Also, bikes tend to be slower, and the biker has considerably more visibility than someone in a car. I roll through stop signs on a bike, but when I do so, I know for sure that there's no one around, because I slow down some, look around, and I'm able to properly see everything. I think most bikers stop (or at the very least slow down) for red lights. I don't usually wait for red lights, but unless I'm able to see clearly that it's safe, I'd never just run one, because I'm not suicidal. Again, having much more visibility, and a lot more time to scope out the situation makes this considerably safer for the person on the bike.
