Yes he does make it sound like he has an even chance. He has never been in a bike accident. I have. 2 crazy ones. Only difference is I had a helmet, full body gear, and no windshield to go through. I still got pretty banged up both times. No major damage, but full body pain, sprains, and 70 percent of my body in black and blues. The gear also saves you from road rash, gear you don't wear in a car. Now Alex, go research some road rash videos.
