Low-speed falls really have to do with getting off balance, not with what pedal system you're using. There's a *small* learning curve involved with switching from "reach down, loosen strap, pull foot up and out" to "turn ankle and kick foot to the side," but it's a small one.

When you can handle sharp turns at low speed, and recover from being slightly off balance - some of the things you practice in a safety course - then you'll have plenty of time to unclip, which only takes a fraction of a second and no hands.

I developed the same issues with motorcycles after a couple of low-speed tip-overs, and at this point haven't been motivated to devote the practice time to dealing with it. You're obviously not clipped in or strapped in on a moto, but off balance on two wheels is off balance on two wheels ...
wait a minute, with straps and cages, you seriously don't have to reach down and undo the strap if you want to take your foot out do you?
