What about distracted pedestrians? I've had to swerve into car lanes from the bike lane almost every day this last week because some pedestrian with his face buried in a phone absent-mindedly steps off the curb against the light. What fraction of the increase is attributable to that?
When I drove a car I used to sympathize with both cyclists and pedestrians. Now that I've been commuting and frequently running errands by bicycle for a couple of years my sympathy has waned significantly due the behavior I observe in my fellow cyclists and pedestrians.
