This might be survivorship bias. If you get hit by a cyclist, you might - worst case Ontario - break a limb or something if they send you flying into something else. If you get hit by a driver, you are definitely going to break something and you will most likely die.

As for how likely it is that you actually get hit - do you think it's easier to avoid a 2' x 6' object moving at 15 mph or a 8' x 16' object moving at 45 mph?

Has the US ever been ahead of any of its peers when it comes to consumer rights?
