Let's reverse that to cyclists getting 2 years for killing pedestrians in the UK.

I'm fed up of putting people who don't follow rules or wear helmets on a pedastle.

And yes, I know 2 people who's lives were saved by a helmet in a collision. But that doesn't change that these are in the minority and actually are safe cyclists.

Frankly why the stigma of public transport which I exclusively use exists astounds me but people probably "ass-ume" I drive a car daily.

Cyclists aren't put on a pedestal; the sentence for causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving is rarely any longer: https://www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/offences/magistrates-co...

There are several recent cases of drivers getting 15 months or less for killing pedestrians.
