Distracted car drivers
More than one half of my riding (by time) is in urban, somewhat dense traffic conditions.
I suggest it is worth learning how to use the horn judiciously while riding a motorcycle in such conditions. Judiciously - that 1/10 of a second sound blast. You simply must ride with the assumption that if he or she has a plausible reason to turn left in front of you, he or she will. And more likely than not, he or she is blissfully ignorant of your very existence. I wouldn't do it when lane splitting though. It just generates bad blood.
