As others have implied, when you ride a bike on the road you have to make assumptions.
To be safe you have to assume that no other road user can see you and be prepared to avoid an accident at all times. If you ride a bike the way you drive a car you can almost guarantee having an accident. It may be a car drivers fault but it is much better not to get injured in the first place. I have known quite a few accident victims who would still be here today or not have a permanent injury if they had taken stock of what was going on around them and anticipated others actions. Simply ride like you are invisible. You very quickly learn to look much further and wider than when in a car.
