If you cannot anticipate that the driver's door is likely to open soon
after a car has pulled up, then perhaps you should not be using the
roads.

A safe speed and machine coupled with a suitable distance from the car
would mean that cyclist would likely still be alive.


So tell me how you stay a doors width away from parked cars when you're
driving your car and the road is just not wide enough without going over
the white centre line?


So tell me how so few car doors ever get hit by other cars?
