Pretty certain that its literally impossible to be run over by one without doing something incredibly stupid. If someone was trying to run you down with one it would look an awful lot like that scene from Austin Powers with the roller.

I'm also unsure how my interpretation of what happened without being there is "fucked up" but those taking the opposite position are apparently fine. At least mine is based on reasoning and first-hand experience.
