Lane positioning. If you're on the center line it's pretty obvious you *might* be turning left very soon.
Tweaks to your route to find well-lit intersections or lower traffic.
Time your approach to intersections to allow cars to go through first. There are some where I pull off the road until there is a good gap to get across dangerous intersections; worst case I'll do box turns or go pedestrian mode in a crosswalk.
