Thanks... I guess
You are welcome.
I eventually learned to unclip one foot anytime there is the slightest possibility of having to stop.
As for when it happens, I just roll with it, literally. I stick my knee out ever so slightly so I hit on the side of my lower leg first, the let the impact progress along my leg to my hip and roll over on my back. All the while keeping my hands firmly on my handlebars, which is where I feel the best place is for them in any crash.
Reaching out with your arms is just asking for a broke collar bone IMO.
