I'm not really going to do a "what you should've done" or anything like that, it's been beaten to death... but I honestly don't understand why you went to the shoulder and did such a late brake. You said you were distracted by the van, so I guess that explains it -- a bit of target fixation... but still. Bad Jiggles! No cookies!
Feel better soon, and ride more carefully silly!
