I've lived here for almost two decades and I've almost never had a problem with bikes.
I did once see a driver make a right turn and hit a delivery bike kid, drag him for a few feet, and then speed off. Luckily, teenagers I guess are indestructible and the kid got up and rode away after a few minutes.
If you want better bike and pedestrian safety, the solution is probably build better bike lanes. There are a lot of spots with nothing, or a painted suggestion. There's a spot near prospect park where they expect the bicyclist to turn right, pass through a lane of traffic, and then just hang out in the center lane with all the cars. It's a nightmare.
There was a video a long while ago where a cyclist got a ticket for not riding in the bike lane.
So he filmed himself riding in the bike lanes and crashing into the parked cars there and one of them was a cop.
It's clear that politicians don't give a fuck about cyclists.
The cops always park in the bike and pedestrian lanes in prospect park, and it makes me so mad.
Personally I feel like if you park in the bike lane for any reason that's not life or death, people should be allowed to do what they want to your car. Maybe move it. Maybe key it. I don't care. It's a hazard for everyone.
Like when firefighters run their hoses through the busted out windows of cars blocking hydrants
While I wouldn't go as far as keying, I fully agree if you park in a protected lane such as a fire lane, bike lane, handicap etc any damages accumated in the lane should be the drivers responsibility.
I fully agree, more biking accessible options becoming available wouod be good. it's not safe from either side.
