Insulating bicycles from other vehicles is not the only path to road safety. When forced to interact with bikes more often, car drivers drive more safely and conservatively. Not sure that works everywhere or depends on better driver education and general empathy.

I think in NL it works because everyone rides bikes there, whether you're royalty (and I mean that literally, king Willem bikes occasionally too!) or pauper
