FWIW - my city riding tip - keep an eye on the front wheels of a car. They will tell you where the car is going before it itself actually moves.

Watch the drivers seat and/or car doors when riding on the street as well. Someone quickly opening a door can send you flying!

The number of your fellow cyclists who are complete inconsiderate jerks has a lot to do with your problems with motorists.
