If you want to improve your road riding, an advanced course would be good. A restricted licence is not an issue, and if you want an cheap (possibly free depending on location) and hassle free, albeit brief, training session have a look at the bikesafe courses. Judging from what you've said you will learn a lot and it might save your life one day.
totally agree with Fuzzy.. forward planning should stop you getting into that situation in the first place, look at extra training.. you never stop learning.. trust me, been there doner that and after writing off two bikes I decided the problem was mines not anyone elses.. transformed my riding.. keep the knee down stuff for the track where its safer
