My first ride into Honolulu, I almost bought it from some idiot who didn't check his blind spot, luckily the lane to my left was empty.
Keep your eyes constantly moving, looking around in front of you, esp. if you are on a multi-lane highway. I am always checking my mirrors, I have been surprised too many times by some lead footed, Richard Petty wannabe, either a cager or another rider.

don't know of anything else that can be said, everybody else has already covered it.
