I had a close call today & was able to get out of my pedals before I fell! Yippee!

I was at a 4-way stop and had clipped out of my left pedal. Well, this lady came through the stop & was turning toward me -- she was all over the road! I leaned in the opposite direction (to the right --still clipped in!) -- I guess it was just instinctive to lean away -- because she was too close for comfort. Anyway, I started teetering that way & was able to get my foot out before I bit the dust. Good test for me. (Well, if you don't count the almost getting hit part!) Anyway, I did scratch up my left leg a little on the bike but I didn't notice that until my sweetie told me later.
