A further thought, If these things slide aren't you reducing the
friction forces between the bike and the road. Allowing the downed bike
to travel further, longer, with slower slowing,  maybe creating more
bike damage or perhaps a more complicated accident. ( thinking
roadrunner & coyote here) .

just a thought
