I think what he was trying to say is the a large number of bicyclists ride around with an attitude (like yours) that they are going to just ride carefree and leave it up to cars to spot them.  When you are riding a bike you should be defensive, but for some reason a lot of foolish riders in Eugene are putting their lives in the hands of someone else to protect. Being in the "right" is small consolation for someone who gets run over.
