I understand the caveat about anecdotal evidence. I am not convinced, however, that cyclists account for less than 10%. I believe that is very skewed because, as the officer told me, "pedestrians are always given right of way".

Bingo! I've wondered if this doesn't explain much of the confusion-generating behaviour of motorists, cyclists and even pedestrians: people are treating cyclists with kid gloves because they regard them as having the privilege of pedestrians, and many cyclists expect that treatment.
