I made a little adjustment to your post that makes your statement a little more relevant to me.
While I care if motorists respect me, I care more than they don't kill me.
It seems like common sense. If you run a red light on a bike, you're taking a HUGE risk of getting run over by a truck who has no reason whatsoever to expect cross traffic when his light is green. But nope. Cyclists do it all the time.
