I'm happy with my time atac pedals, almost a year i'm using them and only had 2 or 3 insteances of them unclipping unintentionally but that was me swinging on the bike too much I guess and not the fault of the pedal itself. Basically if I go over excited while skidding sometimes I twist my foot too far and unclip it - that's my explanation. That's me having them on the lightest setting. I used to use spd's before (the 20 quid ones - the cheapest ones) before that and they were also fine however they were unclipping too often and I got fed up dancing in the middle of the road on one leg becouse of that.
Initially I thought that times are TOO secure and wouldn't unclip in case of fall but had few accidents of them and unclipping during accident isn't an issue eiter, love clipless for that over straps:)
edit: currently using Specialized BG Sport MTB shoes - no cleat scratch, good price/performanc compromise (more towards price). I used sonomas before - some cleat scratch but quite comfortable to walk (used to spend whole day at work in them)
