Second, I think sometimes the adrenalin masks the pain and you don't always realize how hurt you are.
Or you could do what I did, drag my ass out of traffic moving at 40+ mph using my hands since my leg was broken and then lay down. Adrenaline is a wonderful thing.
I hope you never get hit, and if you do, I hope you are well enough to make the decisions that need to be made (like insisting the bike comes with me in the ambulance and then into the ER!!!).
