Although technically not a crash or an almost crash, I think this fits here. Although this gets batted around a lot, here is one more reminder of why not to wear jeans on a motorcycle: I give you a three MPH slide on one knee over approx 3-4 ft of asphalt: I have had this point told to me over and over again but, drat. Tripping off a curb and seeing that was a really sober way to bring home what a 30+ mph slide on that same knee might have looked like. Wear your gear!

Also, pick your feet up so you don't trip. Har har, for the record it was a good night at Max's down in Fells point and I was drunk, talking emphatically, and trying to impress the girl I was walking with all at the same time
