It might just be me being a bit dim but in half a century of riding bikes I've never heard of a lethal( to use Rooster1's word) problem caused by mudguards and have no idea what a safety clip looks like or where you'd find one on a mudguard. Is this a new thing?

My Carlton did it to me in 1977, something got caught in the wheel/tyre collapsing the front mudguard into the forks and launching me over the front.

My 1st ever broken collarbone, luckily it was cold so I'd got gloves on.
