I've been riding since I could find my balance (around 35 years now) and I've fallen many, many times. The most dreaded thing I can imagine - and probably the worst case scenario - is that my foot keeps being attached to the pedal once I start falling. In most cases just touching my footsore to the ground gets me upright again but these contraptions prevent that. So nope. No matter how convenient and efficient they are, I'm not going for them.
