If cyclists are meant to "share the road" then why aren't they held to the same safety standards as cars?

Can someone explain this to me?

You're viewing a single thread.
Bicycles aren't held to the same safety standards as cars because bicycles are inherently way less dangerous than cars.
Your question is like asking why BB guns aren't held to the same safety standards as actual guns.
My question stems from the fact that certain areas expect cyclists to share the road with cars while drivers are protected by higher safety standards, and cyclists are exposed to a higher level of danger.
Cars are the danger.
