Concussion are serious business compared to most broken bones. 
Collarbones generally heal fine and most others. A broken hip certainly 
more to worry about than most. Concussions are an unknown in my book and 
in many medical doctors. The left over effects are not always apparent 
at first and hard to really pin down. The brain in complicated and we 
see this in football over the years and boxing.

In some way I don't blame a cyclist for walking away depending on the 
situation. Certainly from competitive cycling but even just riding in 
general as you can fall over bad just barely moving.
