Have you notice how the general opinion is that people getting hit by cars somehow deserved it? My best friend was hit by a text-and-drive kindof woman. He was an athlete and now he can't walk more than a few hundred meters.

You must always exercise safety and pragmatism, but that doesn't mean that the "stronger" vehicle deserves the right of way more. I'd argue that the more dangerous the vehicle is, the greater the obligation to operate it with care and due regard for others.
I think both are true.
I mean I'm pretty sure this is exactly why trucks over a certain tonnage require and additional license to operate. At least here in the US they do. I'm sure many other countries have something similar.
