I don't currently have the confidence or desire to ride (much) around other vehicles. Just side/residential roads that are pretty empty, but even that I'm aware, can be dangerous (it's likely the vehicle you *don't* see that gets ya). The mainthing is to wear all the gear, all the time, and know the limits of your abilities. Most motorcycle accidents happen because the rider is cornering too fast or expects other road users will obey right of way/laws, and they don't. Knowledge is half the battle. :-)
