In the relatively short time I have been riding clipless I have fallen ZERO times and almost fallen twice, once was the first night I wore them and unclipped on the opposite side of my lean and the second time was going up a short but very steep hill on my fixed gear with little momentum and things unclipped just fine.

After going clipless finally I really have no interest in going back. It is nice to feel secure in my pedals but be able to get out easily without having to leave things so loose as you would with clips and straps.
