I'm a cyclist, most of my friends are cyclists and accidents are a common topic of conversation.

In nearly every case I hear about where a car hits a bike, they flee the scene before anyone can get the licence plate. And few of the cyclists bother to report it, since there isn't much to report.

With car-on-car accidents, particularly with less damage, it's pretty common to hear drivers agree "not to get insurance involved" (which of course also means not reporting it), for fear that one's rates will go up.

"Today, the notion of progress in a single line without goal or limit seems perhaps the most parochial notion of a very parochial century." — Lewis Mumford
