Oh, c'mon Bill ...

We all know how fleet afoot you are, and how you almost qualified for the '92 Olympics gymnastics team.

It will be come obvious to the judge (and jury?) that you stepped off that curb after the car was already turning into the crosswalk, thus signalling intent for the car to continue with the turn.

You realized your mistake, so you quickly and quite deftly did one of those patented toe-twist moves you're so famous for.

All would have been fine, except that you forgot to account for the thickness of the paint in the crosswalk lines, so your finely tuned toe-twist maneuver was thrown off-kelter, you lost your balance, and in trying to correct your motion so your adoring fans in the stopped cars wouldn't see their hero look awkward, you fell *backward* into the car.

You can't fool us, Bill. Good try, though.
