On the road bike, I tend to ride fast on the downhills and have been in one accident in which I'm lucky to be alive. A car turned left in front of me, a common occurrence with motorcycles.
A lot of people that have never had a bad crash don't think about it because it has never happened to them, so they have no experience with it.

Anyways, have fun on your fixie, it's a cool bike.
