While overtaking always be in the "right" gear and increase your speed slightly while pulling the maneuver.
Dont use the HIGH BEAM unless on an empty and dark road.
Dont use the horn needlessly. There are occasions when people have got in trouble with the law and the goons for using it excessively.
Do not use the clutch if your RPM falls below the ideal RPM for that gear. Downshift instead.
Try and smile in case you get in a "situation". More often than not the person in front of you will smile back and instead of getting "ugly" the situation could well turn out to be the only good thing that happened to you the whole day.
Use dippers on the high ways while overtaking.
