i went abroad to england during college. while there, two people were hit (and killed) by buses. the first, i actually witnessed (it was horrible). the second, i heard about because the girl went to my college and i had met her a few days before. they were both riding bikes when it happened. then, a family friend was hit and killed by a bus while jogging in Las Vegas (he was listening to an ipod). based on my experience, i'd say the "what if you get hit by a bus?" question is valid.
