Its not even possible I am wrong if you have had 10 cyclist collisions. I'm a regular rider on Toronto streets and I know all sorts of regular riders. Those streets are zoo's and cycling and driving and even been a pedestrian is a blood sport. No quarter asked and non given. Car's don't back off and give room to bikes or pedestrians or vice versa. It is truly a challenging place to cycle or even walk if you are taking on the driving traffic.You could be right. The police haven't agreed with you, and unlike the cyclists who have spent significant time in the hospital I never get a scratch.
And I am not saying you are 'at fault' in these accidents you have. You may not be. BUt just because you are not at fault does not mean you are not a terrible driver causing all sorts of havoc around you if you have no defensive driving skills and don't see what is generally going on around you. Good drivers are avoiding all sorts of accidents and problems all the time even when they would not be at fault if something happened.
