Basicly, it cuts down to identifying your advantages, and play accordingly. If you are playing as light cavalry, use your speed to manouver and hit the enemy in the back.
When playing as a lancer, you only to fear getting stopped and ranged fire. Use your lance to keep those fast, pesky hussars away. If playing solo, try not to couch all to much. If you're in a lb, use the couch versus braced bayonets, or enemies with their back to you.
If you're playing as heavy Cav, you can actually afford a frontal charge, but flanks or rear is still prefered.
However, keep in mind that manouvering and surprising the enemy is more important then any class advantage. In order to demonstrate, please watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFp9yiU5uq4&list=UUjDRjz7kJYcb97xu6kESfuw&index=18&feature=plcp about 3:20-4:00 in this Video. It might be from M&M, but seeing how "Lancers were OP" back then, it really doesnt matter.
If you are playing on a pub server, i find sticking to your teammates really effective. Wait for them to get the enemies attention, then run in and either bump the enemy, giving your friendies a easy kill or kill him yourself. Oh, and remember, its only a killsteal if your teammate can present a document of enemy ownership. For all other instances, kill on.
