disaster no low oil warning

two days ago I went through a pot hole.I didn,t feel anything unusual the hole didn't seem that big. By the time I got to work the engine had started to make a strange noise. Upon checking I found that there was oil dripping
no, flowing out of a crack in the front of the oil pan.(the old classoc Saab had protection against this sort of accident). I called GM road side service for help. The dealer found the crankshaft bearings gone connecting rod bearings gone(for now). -MY PROBLEM IS THERE WAS NO WARNING OF LOW OIL- UNTIL THE NOISE STARTED I THOUGHT ALL WAS OK. In the early 70s I had a little fiat when the oil was low a switch stopped the engine.I suppose that a gaget like this is too costly for SAAB to include in its manufacture. The repair is so far $1500cdn and climbing. I have to thank the gods for collision insurance.
