It doesn't seem like "fear posting" to me and it doesn't depress me. If reading the crash stories makes you depressed, just keep things in perspective; for every wreck there are thousands of uneventful rides.

I consider accident accounts as a chance to learn how wrecks happen, and how best to avoid them. Knowledge is power. If you hide your head in the sand and avoid all crash posts, there is nothing to be learned. Many members who post here have a LOT of experience riding in traffic. We should be able to learn from them.
