That, or you don't realize that close passes and tailgating are
able ... to cause harm or injury.
Just riding along any how and in any way
is able ... to cause harm or injury. Evaluating relative risk of various scenarios requires being capable and willing to make intelligent decisions and value judgements, not just crying like Henny Penny that
everything is dangerous because of a fear that
something/anything unpleasant could happen. After all, any moving object
is able ... to cause harm or injury.
