The goal is to NOT fall. Hope this helps.
More generally, I go over each "near miss" and "near fall." My goal is to outsmart the "near miss" and "near fall," so that I don't HIT or FALL.
(And before the cliche of there are two types of cyclists, yes, I've crashed. But if people keep on crashing, over and over again, sorry, I keep thinking they are doing it wrong. Not sorry.)
