Another: be sure of eye contact with other road users when negotiating passage at a junction, a crossing, or whatever ... see that they see you and don't proceed until you're sure and they seem to be stopping.

A classic: back into parking spaces, it's safer. It's easy to see if a space is clear before you park in it, and no-one is likely to suddenly get in your way. The opposite is true of the shared roadway, so be able to drive forwards into the roadway with a full view.

Obvious but under done: Don't tailgate, and leave plenty of space when stopping behind cars, they might roll back, especially if ti's a manual transmission.

This drives me crazy too! Those indicators are included for free in every car and there’s no charge for using them.
