Many, many, many years ago in a land far, far, far away I was in a serious accident that had legal repercussions. The upshot was while everyone was clear that it wasn't technically my fault (I hadn't cycled backwards at 60mph into the front of a slow-moving car, after all), had I done a, b, and c through z, it wouldn't have happened would it?
Sadly, not much has changed. It's still that terrible logic that says yes, he shouldn't have hit you in the face, but then but you were nagging him, love.
This will continue while there's no real concept of a hierarchy of vulnerability and a higher duty of care applies to the top than the bottom and that all parties aren't somehow always equal.
One of the reasons I don't cycle very much on the roads is simply that I know I have no protection from the police or the legal system. If someone knocks me off, either accidentally or on purpose, I have zero faith anything at all will be done and that it somehow be a fate that I invited. It's an atrocious situation.
ETA: it wasn't an accident, of course. How easily we slip into this discourse.
