If you look at the bigger picture, it's less clear. For example, when
seatbelts were made mandatory in Britain, although the injury rate
went down amongst occupants of cars, the injury rate went up for
cyclists and pedestrians. Cars were crashing more often, but causing
less harm to their occupants (but causing more risk, nonetheless,
to those outside the vehicle).

This is exactly the sort of behavior that I have observed on the street,
without benefit of the statistics to back it up.
