(Actually not a bad attitude to have in part, assume the other drivers are fools who are about to do something silly and adjust your driving so you can avoid their silliness. It may not be that silly, they could see something you can't for example.)

Practice
Defensive driving Always give yourself an out.
In our town we have TWD's. (Typical Worthing Drivers) With the high proportion of the towns population being elderly and often driving on whilst confused or suffering dementia they can and will do just about anything.
I've seen them take the "short cut" on a roundabout instead of going 3/4 round. Indicate left and turn right. Go all the way round the outside of a two lane roundabout. Block the outside lane on a dual carriageway for miles because they eventually want to turn right but won't/can't drive fast enough to avoid getting boxed in and going down an OFF ramp straight into the oncoming traffic.
You name it I've seen it.
