I have lived in both SF and austin.

And operated a pedicab professionally for 9+ years in downtown austin bar/UT football, music festivals, etc... with all kinds of motorists/cyclists/pedestrians in all sorts of states.
My experience leads me to believe that most accidents late at night occur at intersections. And I have seen some bad ones.
I am going to move right through them and minimize my time in those very same intersections.
Not to mention the strange and/or nefarious characters I have seen late night in our inner cities.......
