Stanford bike safety comic, 1975
Found via a thread over in bicycle mechanics, I thought this might be more appropriate over here: Sprocketman.
On the whole, it seems like mostly good advice.

The one topic that is now outdated locally, are parallel storm grates, and with my testing one out in the late 60's when I switched to a narrower tire bike. By 1975, our local storm grates were replaced with more safer versions.

Can you imagine where the US would be today if "EffectiveCyclingMan" didn't show up to squash the notion of bike lanes.
Even the old freeway offramp I used to have to ride (and negotiate) in San Diego now has nice new bicycle infrastructure.
I used to have to negotiate with freeways speed traffic to get to the top of this exit to make the left turn... Now there is a bicycle exit and bridge. Built over the last few years.
Yeah Sprocketman!

Yes, it took me decades to overcome the fear of riding over the newer versions of our local storm drains, which I will still actively avoid whenever possible.
