Honestly I have only read the opening post and title.
I remember reading the following logic froma report on cyclist deaths/injury stats:
-Women cyclists are far more likely to be involved in traffic incidents.
-But Men are far more likely to take risks, where as women tend to obey traffic code more.
-A large number of accident occur at traffic signals
Conclusion: Men who jump the lights when there's no obvious threat avoid the rush of cars at green signal, where as women get chewed up.
women ride safer, but cars don't
