There is plenty of data on this topic and it all shows that people riding bikes break rules at the same or lower rate than people driving cars. And unlike cars, they aren't one of the leading causes of death in the US.

I break the law on my bike a lot more than my car, but I don't ride an ebike on the sidewalk where pedestrians are. That's what I'm talking about.

I run stop signs on my bike all the time (like at 4 way stops) - I don't think this is very dangerous if you do it properly. Obviously I slow down to like a few MPH and can stop quickly if I see a car/someone crossing the street/whatever.
