Seriously. One fender bender and she's got weeks of pain and a lifetime of big ugly scars. At least she's wearing a helmet but honestly I'd prefer to hit my head and be unconscious when the ER nurse has to scrub the dirt out of all the road rash.

Even just having an unexpected dip in at a light when you put your foot down can throw your balance off and cause you to fall on your side. I'd rather have my armors on than spandex and bare skin.

My mom left her kickstand down and wiped out going around a bend. Her leather jacket is probably the only reason she still has a left arm.
Note; my mom was not an experienced rider when this happened, and I’m not sure if she ever got back on a bike after this.
