True, but I think we can all agree that trying to resist any temptation to outstretch an arm is a good idea. (I have a since-healed Colles' fracture of the radius to prove the fallacy of stretching out an arm to break a fall as a pedestrian. This was far more painful than the double fracture of the left clavicle I sustained in my only bicycle-motor vehicle crash.)
