yep I think "inappropriate" is the key word here, of the 3 "memorable" falls I've taken, I'd (and the police agreed) attribute part of the cause of only one to speed the other factor was sand in a curve.
Other 2 crashes 1 involed pedestian and taxi cab. 2 was young girl pulling out of gas station into my path.
I've had a few, but the most "memorable" was rear ending a stopped mid 60’s Mustang while riding my Honda CB350 back in 1973 and watching a fetching young thing in a very short skirt and halter top rather than the car ahead of me. The car and the bike were both undamaged, but the laughter of the girl and witnesses severely damaged my poor fragile ego. 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
