I crashed it a few times, I don't see how you could possibly fall on your face. One was on my side (guess how I got that curb story), the other on my feet (sprained an ankle)

Small injuries happen more often than on a bicycle by a margin

If I get a scratch I get a scratch, I'll trade that for a shorter commute

What I really care about are real injuries. Those are from drivers and they are the same whether you're on a bike or anything else
