You should care about other people safety no matter what. As a driver - if I can prevent an accident - it is my moral responsibility to do so - even if the other party is blatantly breaking the rules.

I mean this only in that bicyclists like to use "I am just doing what keeps me safe" as justification for behaving like an asshole and endangering others. I still suggest trying to avoid accidents no matter how much of an asshole the other party is.
It's like "loud pipes save lives" - it may be true in some way, but it's a post-facto justification for 90% of the people using it.
