For an elderly person, losing control or crashing on a trike is a low speed non-event.

A car driving so dangerously, so recklessly, so without any care for humanity, to hit a slow moving bicycle is homicide. It's an outrage to ever surrender the road to criminals. No-one should ever accept such a mentality.

Disagree. The President himself bit it simply getting off a bike. A trike does not avoid the need to dismount.
They are nearly as easy to dismount as a mobility scooter. They are stable, no balacing and typically no crossbar so you just swing your legs across.
