As a pedestrian, I had several near collisions with cyclists in London.

I find cyclists in London annoying too, but the vast majority of serious injuries to pedestrians are caused by cars.

As proof, I cite this amusingly stupid 2024 Daily Mail article which notes that "more than 30 pedestrians have been killed by cyclists over the past decade".

How many are permanently disabled?
In comparison to the number of people permanently disabled by being hit by cars? Very few.
