I've never fallen because I couldn't UNclip, in 15 years. (touch wood) Every time I've ALMOST fallen when stopping, I managed to clip out and get a foot down.

No, my fall came the second or third time out, trying to clip IN. I rolled out of my driveway, going about 3 mph, looking down at the pedal trying to roll it over just right to clip in, when suddenly something loomed up in front of my tire - the curb on the other side of the street. BANG! PLOP! There I am on the ground still attached to the bike by the other pedal.

Luckily, nobody saw that.
