Item 1) may not make you safer but will increase your survivability ( depending upon one's opinion).
Item 2) how motorists drive will determine how safe bicyclists on the road will be.
And because of this, similar posts can be uploaded repeatedly to the risk of being called a broken record. But being accused of repetition doesn't change one's opinion of a topic especially if it's relevant to the discussion.
Dividing things into two categories that ridiculously general isn't terribly convincing. Why stop there? There are only two topics, bicycles and not bicycles. Anything about bicycles therefore fits in any thread about bicycles. Anything about not bicycles can therefore be put into threads about not bikes.
Over-repetition adds nothing of value to the conversation of any topic, and whether Joey rides through the park on his day off or why is not relevant to this thread.
