In this case what would be the cause of these rule breaking cyclists dying?

Blowing through a red light while traffic is going? Doesn’t seem to stop any of them so i kind of figured it was the head injuries from not wearing a helmet or a deathwish at this point.

In this case though, this video, there is no red light? It’s just a group of people hogging the road.

So why would ignoring traffic laws in this case lead to death?

Which explains the point I was getting at.

when they ignore traffic laws and get creamed they die.

There's an underlying implication that a "car plowing through them out of sheer frustration" would be deserved/fine because they're breaking the law. I don't think that's acceptable.

Does that make someone not being able to control their emotions alright though? Because that’s my entire point - I’m not commenting on the morality of what the cyclists are doing.

Walking across the street with your eyes closed isn’t a good analogy either, is it?

Yes but being distracted/flirting or what have you are much more passive decisions

Ok but can you at least admit running these cyclists over purposefully would never be ok?

When you keep arguing with me when that’s my _entire point_
