I'll admit I've been hit once - and it was my fault. I was using a shortcut on my commute that required riding on a sidewalk (contrary to the flow of traffic) for about 100 yards and crossing a two parking lot entrances. Driver sped out of the parking lot and only looked left (where oncoming traffic would come from) and plowed across the sidewalk, hit the back of my bike at about 10mph (panniers took the impact) so no harm was done beyond knocking my rear wheel slightly out of true, didn't even fall over.
Red line on map was original shortcut, blue arrow how I got hit, black line how I modified my shortcut to be safer after that.
