Gotta agree with the previous posters. Lots of lights/reflectors and take the lane. I go from the White Rock Lake area to Allen and used to have problems getting buzzed, honked and yelled at, almost daily. Ever since I started taking the lane, these occurances are few and far between.
I can't remember who posted the comment here on BF, but it went something like:
"Act like the alpha-wolf and drivers will treat you as such; act like a gutter bunny and you'll be eaten alive."
