In which case, you can congratulate yourself on letting "them" win.

It would only be a weirdo who would let pride stand in front of survival.

That'll be the people who get killed in cars instead of using public
transport.

I do not understand how "won't be living in London next year" equates with
"will be driving a car instead of using public transport".

Perhaps you could explain how you forged the link?

I have made no such link. The link is between the two sentences, one
of which followed the other in the conventional way, which I'll paste
from above.

"It would only be a weirdo who would let pride stand in front of
survival."

Followed by

"That'll be the people who get killed in cars instead of using public
transport."

My implication, if you didn't spot it, was that some people take pride
in driving their death machines around, often badly and often in busy
cities, but wouldn't be seen dead (ha) in a bus or train, and are
therefore weirdos according to the previous assertion.
