The Car Talk guys used to advocate for this method. I did it for a while, and liked it. Until I almost killed a motorcyclist.

I'm a motorcyclist in a crowded city and sadly this is a multi-daily occurrence
As a bicyclist, I always drove so that even if a car had no idea I was there at all, I would be safe or have a plan to dodge. On a motorcycle, I have to think that any time I entered a car's blind spot I would alert and planning to leave. Even in a car I don't hang out there.
Sorry =( As a bike commuter I can relate.
