There’s going to be some psychopaths no matter what (I have a buddy with permanent injuries from an intentional hit-and-run on his bike) but the bigger problems there are poorly designed roads, improper bike lanes, and lack of enforcement for distracted driving. Empathy doesn’t resolve infrastructure failures.
If car drivers had empathy there wouldn’t be a fourth as many bike deaths every year.

Empathy for car drivers has nothing to do with that.

Every day in Chicago I see hundreds of people needlessly driving when we have the infrastructure. It’s an individuals problem too.
Bikes are dirt cheap. Lol. Would easily pay for itself in saved gas money from the stupid trucks southern people drive
