That's what has been playing in my head over and over again. Like most accidents, it happened so fast so I'm trying to replay what happened and what I could have done. I did let off the throttle and cover the brake when I saw the truck, but I was thrown off because he didn't even stop. I was ready for him not to see me, but he didn't even stop at the stop sign so he was in the intersection must faster than I anticipated. I don't remember hitting both brakes, just grabbing the front (which I know is a big no-no). Thus I locked up the rear tire, but still had it upright. When I realized I still wasn't going to stop in time, I turned to the right and of course the bike went down. It's hard to say that I would have stopped if I hit both brakes the millisecond I knew the truck was going right in front of me, I am 98% sure I still would not have stopped in time. Definitely could not have swerved because it was a huge pickup truck with a long trailer behind him. So no room in front or behind (I was headed right for the rear of his truck so both in front and behind were blocked).

I think for a new rider target fixation sets in too...you see the object and focus on it only, rather than your options to avoid the object.
