I usually do this but when I sew over the pin - I slow WAY down. I also make sure that the seams are pressed in the opposite directions so that they nestle together. If I take the pin out before I get to the point/seam I use a stilletto, as Jan in VA discussed, - that makes sure that that they sty together.
I have also seen where some sewers hand tack points and seams that they are especially concerned about.
