Is it possible that the lock mechanism or the loops (where the seat hooks) that are part of the frame were bent out of shape?
Glad you're ok. I dread the day someone might hit me from the rear as sometimes there's just nowhere to go to avoid it. The other directions you can usually practice for :/
also to just add on the hyper lites - another option is to add a brake light relay so that your rear brake will flash a few times before it stays still. I bought one but haven't installed it yet. I do flash my brakes by pumping my rear pedal when I see someone approaching.
From my own experience sometimes my break light switch near the lever does come off due to some of my more windy..spirited.. riding.. I'd double check that before every ride while you're warming up the bike.
