Your best defense is right between your own two ears. Active defensive/offensive riding is the way to survive. When I'm on the bike I'm constantly scanning the road, other drivers, etc. watching out for any sticky situations or bad driving so I know where I need to be to avoid it.

I really wish there were a Class A through D license system in the USA, where D (for dip$hit) means you have to do at or under the speed limit at ALL times, and Class A essentially having no restrictions as long as you don't cause an accident or are riding 'reckless'. I sometimes wish I could just cruise at 120 on the freeway without worrying about cops. THAT is the safest way to stay visible and get past the crazies on the road.
