That may be your solution. You go right ahead.

I prefer to pay extra attention when this seems most likely to happen, such as an approaching vehicle after a break in traffic. Then, as hotbike mentioned, it may be a good time to take more of the lane. Or, perhaps just change lane position a bit, within the lane, to add a bit of unexpected movement that just might break the fixation.
