Pretend you are invisible then you'll be fine. On the first day I road my CBR600F a few years ago, I had 3 f*****s pull out on me en route to work and that was all within a 5 km trip!
I crashed my CBX550F2 in '88 when a girl on a bicycle did U-turn in front of me and I crashed the aforementioned CBR on the West Coast when I was going too quick for a tight corner, panicked, hit the front brake and leapt off when I could see a ravine looming up on me!
About 2 years ago a stupid b***h cut in front of me, I had the bike (a 01 R1) sideways with my left on the ground motocross style and skidding into the kerb on the opposite side of the road. I rode after her and had a few words. I have friends who are handy with ticket books and needless to say she was short of $150 by the end of the day.
