I have yet to fall in 6 years of clipless use. I started riding to work mostly, so lots of stop and go to practice clipping and unclipping.
If I only did long club rides where there were lots of pedalling between stops; I may have forgotten that I was clipped in and had
tumbled over - like some of my fellow club members have done.
