45,000 motorists killed on the roads annually... I don't think it is due to cyclists running traffic lights.
From the other bit of bait trolled by chennai, you should know that the police tend to ignore cyclist in Denver, except the ones that go out of their way to cause trouble. But then again, Denver is cracking down on street racing also, which is just about the same as CM except faster and far more dangerous to other people. And if you look at the number of traffic citations in Denver, you'd probably find that the number given to motorist far, far out numbers those given to cyclists - even when you count the ones give to the CAs.
