Default Cyclist dies after hitting car door

On 2007-04-14, Martin (aka Bruce)
was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea:

My condolences to his family and friends.

Don't ride close to parked cars, even if you can't see anyone inside.
Some time ago I very nearly hit a car door that was swung open by
someone lying across the front seats - there was no head visible through
the car windows.


There is the remotest chance something positive could come from this.

The guy may have been riding along in a car door lane. The coroner
might just be useful enough to find that car door lanes are a really
stupid idea, and recommend for their immediate removal from all roads.

I won't hold my breath.
