Heard that! It's always best to practice in the grass or on dirt roads, softens the inevitable fall a bit and don't have to dodge cars. It's like they tell Pug in the 12 oclock boys documentary "hit the field, you'll get nice!" I had a very close call with traffic on my ke100 riding wheelies in Philly a few weeks back. It was my own dumb fault. Went back to riding parking lots till I felt more in control.
Back brake is crucial!
