This is definitely a fear of mine.  My wife has only been riding about 4 years (43yo).  She rides a Honda 400EX with long travel, TCS suspension, etc to make it as stable and comfortable as possible.  She usually rides at the back of the pack with me and at the moment, the only injury is putting her foot down and riding over her ankle (just a bruise).

Good luck and hope she has a speedy recovery.

I was one of the biggest fans of Robby.  Met him numerous times as my father had many contacts in the petroleum industry.  We were a large supplier of Valvoline.  He was nice and did talk a great game in front of sponsors.  Then one weekend out in glamis we were parked on Pad 3.  Robby and his crew pulled in and were the biggest pee pees ever.  Basically trying to force us off the pad.  His crew were such a$$ hats, we bailed.  A few years later, talked with him up on top of Olds.  He was cool as chit.  I also had a dealing with him at the first stadium super trucks at Qualcomm stadium.  I was a flagger for that event, he was an ass.  Treated most there like trash.  Most recently at this years SSSS, he was cool as chit.  Dude is up and down.  I still always root for him in the Baja races.  I love the SST races and wish him nothing but good luck with the Speed cars.     

Seems like Glamis is a theme with Robby not being so cool. I too was at the Qualcomm SST race and Justin Lofton was running Sunrun solar sponsorship and we were there for much of the day. I did see Robby acting not so nice, but also running around like Crazy Robby does. But I chocked it up to a huge amount of work and stress on his plate getting that thing going, and being a good show. Not sure if you were there early in the day when they were working on the track? But they were building that huge crossover jump and I don’t remember who it was but Robby sent someone out to jump it and they landed hard. A few drivers were making comments and Robby was not happy that they were compl. So they changed up that jump a bit and Robby told Justin to try it. Justin did not want to and told Robby to do it first. I think the only level headed guy there was Rob Mac! Lol. 
 

From the grandstands that race was great. From the pit area, it was a bit crazy. Sounds like flagging was too!
