Does dropping the bike at VERY low speed on the road count?

... or bouncing off a curb doing a u-turn on a 125?

I've done it 3 times now, none have been major though they all had the potential to be I think. I've never had more than a bit of a bruise to show for it, and the repair bill's always been reasonable
