I hit a stopped car one time because I wasn't paying attention. Totally my fault.

I've never been hit, though I've had 2-3 close calls (generally when people pull out in front of me).

Nobody's ever thrown anything at me.

I've had plenty of solo crashes, none serious, and almost all because I did something stupid (hey guys, watch this...).


That's in 10-15 years of riding, at least part time, for recreation and transportation.
