I don't share your impression that Bratislava is more dangerous than other European cities. On the contrary I had some nice walks through Bratislava. I also had my share of not-stopping Austrians. But that is only my opinion. If you look at traffic fatalities worldwide, you see that the numbers are comparable among European countries.

Having said that Bratislava is relatively safe, I would remain cautious, even in the safest places. You don't want to be part of the 1.7 deaths per 100.000 people on the Marshall Islands.
