Do not think that they think... treat everyone as a idiot, and be happy when people prove youi wrong. become a mime artist. Signal clearly and early, assume that someone will try and kill you at least once per mile and act accordingly. I was knocked off my bike years ago resulting in eight months off work, learning to walk/talk again, and two years before I was doing both as well as I could before the accident. (which to be honest was not great) the woman who knocked me down and then parked on top of me, didn't look as she "never normally sees bikes on that roundabout" I didn't cycle on the road for years as I was too chicken. but now I'm extra careful and do not treat other road uses as humans, just robots. I think for them, saying that there are still a few close calls.
