<human>: As a courier, time literally is money. That's why we may seem like a$$holes, but sometimes we must take shortcuts in order to make ends meet. Upon arriving to a green light (50m~), the light turned yellow, and I thought I had time to pass it. Thinking of it now, I still believe I would have, with the *possibility* two seconds late. I do this all the time as I'm a fairly fast rider. 

I was speeding, but at the same times I double checked by surroundings to ensure my safety. Everything checked out, except for the occupied police car on the other side - about to cross the green light. I'm not going to be ticketed for running a red for such a stupid thing, even if it's an extremely slim chance. When it comes to police, no risks. 

I applied both brakes, but I apparently applied my front more than my back, causing my bike to fly forwards, along with myself and the delivery bag on my back rack. Thankfully I was on my way to a restaurant, not a customer's residence. 

I fell forward in slow motion, and did not have time to swing my hands into the pavement due to applying my brakes. In hindsight, I'm glad I failed to do this. Instead, my conscience was in the process of ducking my chin to my neck, but didn't make it. I went no more than five feet, landing in the middle (or behind - can't remember) of the pedestrian sidewalk. My head was the first to hit the pavement, but didn't feel like I went too far. The amazing bystanders lifted my bike, and I got up. The police were kind and asked if I needed anything - I said no thank you. The entire event lasted less than a minute. 

I got away with a tiny cut on my left hand's index finger and a small scrape on my cheek. 

I for one will never not wear a helmet ever again while biking.
