Funny reaction, reminded me of how when a child falls down, he cries until he realizes no one is around to "baby" him & he gets back to what he was doing! Like they say, "Experience is the best teacher". He may not could have done much to have avoided the wreck, but he could have been better prepared (ATGATT) & I would like to think that in the same situation, I'd have dragged myself out of the road before a car ran over me & REALLY gave me something to cry to Mommy about!
I did have 2 deer run toward me on the way to work yesterday, one ran right in front of my bike (so close I could have petted her!) & the other right behind me (I'm sure she has tire rash!). Scared the s**t out of me! It happened so quickly, I didn't have time to react. Good thing, I guess, because if I'd slowed the 2nd deer would have gotten me & if I'd sped up the 1st one would have. All I can say is that now my seat has a permanent button pinched into it! (think about it!)
