Of the 891 crashes in which causes were listed, cyclists ran a red light or rode through a stop sign before colliding with a car 12 percent of the time. Twenty-two percent of the collisions between cars and cyclists occurred when a vehicle door opened unexpectedly on a cyclist. Eighteen percent occurred when a motorist did not see a cyclist.
Clearly the optimal solution is stopping cyclists from disobeying traffic devices! Wait, what?

Indeed, that would stop me from rolling stop signs 0% of the time!
