Being a Good Defensive Driver, I must agree with DirrtyD to keep the bike in gear (1st gear) and be prepared to move out, especially in busy traffic.
On the not so busy side of the city. Keep your scan (for any and all drivers) and rest up your hand and fingers from any fatigue and have a stretch if need be.
