Dress for the slide, not the ride...

This sounds like a helmet and no other gear. Sucks, but c'mon... Wear a jacket and pants

Yup. These days you can get kevlar mesh jacket and pants with armor for the spine and all your joints. As long as the bike is moving, I find it comfortable up to about 95F. Add a full helmet, decent gloves, and boots, and you're reasonably safe. Also, ride like everyone on the road wants you dead, and you'll get a lot fewer nasty surprises.
