Not surprisingly, all five of them are the fault of the car driver, the advice is how to avoid in the first place, or how to get out of the situation if it happens.
I don't personally think the advice is really aggressive enough, but it's not bad as far as it goes. It's good to at least know what the biggest hazards are. They're mostly not the things most people worry about who haven't much experience in traffic.
