"most injuries and deaths on the road from cyclists being knocked off are from them jumping red lights and not wearing helmet. "
She's entitled to her views, however batshit crazy, but there's a nasty whiff of prejudice about claims like this.
Neither claim is even remotely true. It's just what people assume must be the case. Cyclists get the most stick for jumping reds, footway cycling, and not wearing helmets. Well, it's probably a bit of a stretch to claim that footway cycling kills them, so let's assume that about the other two.
