Welcome to the club.
I've got a few falls on the books. My worst was when I was trying to go around someone on my morning commute and they were wearing headphones. This involved me gliding with one tire in the grass. What I didn't see was the erosion area next to the sidewalk that was over grown with grass. The segway tire went down into it and it threw me to the sidewalk. My head bounced twice on the pavement. Luckily I was wearing a helmet and it split instead of my skull. Now I never glide without a helmet.
I have also developed a rule. "If I have to stop and think about how I'm going to glide over something, I get off and push."
