all good but it does not help to be assertive if you come around a corner and a bus is stearing right towards you. You have less than a second to chose between a frontal crash and the ditch. What if there is no ditch but a free fall of maybe hundreds of meters!
My lesson is: NO music while riding in these conditions, stay on the right side before corners, be even more alert and use the horn if you cannot see.
Other than that it makes perfect sense to show them that you are there and tend to use your lane yourself.
