One cyclists nearly ran me over yes but at crossings it happens daily with cars, who speed up at the sight of an amber light. When in fact they should be slowing down as it is a sign the lights will go red any moment.

I've seen cars side-swiped at junctions because they have speed to an amber light.

Yes cyclists need to be more careful, but the car and lorry drivers need to be just as careful as they think they are invincible in their metal boxes.
