The larger the vehicle, the more right-of-way. Also, always assume that no one sees you, even if you have made eye contact with them.

Hursts's book is now titled <i> The Art of Cycling: A Guide to Bicycling in 21st-Century America </i>, and I second Doug's endorsement of the book. $11.21 at Amazon.

I learned those from my professional bus driving mom and again when I got certified to drive emergency vehicles. I think its awesome some one brought it up with bike commuters. Great tips!
