In the book "Zodiac" by Neil Stephenson, Sangamon Taylor describes the proper way to ride a bike in traffic. "Most people will tell you to assume that drivers can't see you. That's bullshit. I assume I'm wearing fluorescent clothes, and there's a million-dollar bounty going to the first driver who manages to hit me. And I ride on that assumption."
I'm sure the quote's way off. I don't have the book here. But that's the attitude.
