If I could only give you one piece of advice it would be this:
Be careful passing junctions where a road forks off to the left.
For TWO reasons, both of which I found out the hard way:
1: Cars (or indeed trucks) you're undertaking might decide to turn left without indicating and kill you
2: The slow traffic you're undertaking might let a car coming in the OTHER direction turn right into your left-hand junction. You don't see 'em til they're killing you.
