> Adherence to the rules of red lights is lax amongst <15% of cyclist.

Cars and trucks break rules all the time, but drivers don't get collectively punished with logic like "this is the driver that gives all drivers a bad name".

The dehumanization of cyclists is precisely the reason why so many people are okay with the logic of collective punishment towards them. People don't do that with drivers because usually when they're observing the poor behavior of drivers they are driving themselves.
