Yep, you're right, but hit by a bike, you don't lose 2 legs at age 16. The one that hit you also doesn't remember it 15 years later instead of still having the occasional nightmare of an extremely bloody mess....
Sorry to bring up memories like that.
Well as long as I can have any noise I like with a certain noise level I'll be happy

(exluding siren noises presumably reserved for emergency services)
