Defensive driving also means lowering your standards somewhat. A lot of accidents happen as a result of assuming that other motorists are as considerate and diligent as you are.
Accept the fact and anticipate that the other driver will inevitably make mistakes, so that there'll be less chances that you'll be taken by surprise when that moment comes.
