I clipped a bicyclist once. He was riding on the wrong side of the road, along a chain link fence, and rode into the intersection after the light turned red. What would have prevented that was there was another car stopped at the light and when it turned green he didn't go. Today I would've slowed way down.
I find I spend an inordinate amount of time looking for bicycles. They're small, fast, and often not where they are supposed to be.
Also there is a lot of talk about cars but in my extended friends groups I know of a number of non-car related accidents. And a couple of cyclist hitting other cyclists. And I think we don't keep statistics on those.
My take is the system wasn't set up for bicycles and it'll take a lot of time and money to fix that.
