With that logic, maybe we should all be driving 18-wheelers, because your puny 2 or 3 ton car is no match for a 10+ ton behemoth. The key principle is that all vehicles should be operated safely. Knowing that such is not always the case, cyclists (being the most vulnerable of vehicles) have the greatest need to operate with heightened awareness for their own safety.
