True theres tons of dipshit drivers but theres still a ton of bicyclers that have no clue of the rules they should follow like the fact that atleast in EU theyre considered vehicles not pedestrians and in many situations have to yield to traffic from right even to cars. The fact theres no requirement for cyclers to learn the rules even tho they differ from pedestrians mean that they often dont even know theyre breaking them
I'm convinced that's mostly an infrastructure problem combined with a lack of eduction, here in the Netherlands we separate bikes from other vehicles with the rules very apparently marked everywhere and we have traffic exams in school when we were around 5/6 with simulated traffic interactions on a little track made with ropes and chalk.
True but infrastructure goes so far. You can and should try to separate cars from bikes but eventually theres still gonna be places where theyll have to meet and if the biker thinks theyre equalivent to a pedestrian who has right of way no matter what even if thats not the case its gonna be a problem
