Re: Teach drivers how to open their doors.
I'd vote for that, I drive along a long length of road each evening going to work where people park all the way along it but there is still just about room to have two lines of traffic passing along it, but it is only just so your eyes are on not scraping along the parked cars or taking off the mirrors of the ones coming toward you. I breath a sigh of relief when I get to end of it, but just one person not thinking and opening a door into the traffic can cause a road block and traffic stops all through the town as people sort out the problem. I've seen several doors lost along there.Re: Teach drivers how to open their doors.
I've noticed these past 15 - 20 odd years that many people nowadays seem to have no spacial awareness. I wouldn't dream of stepping out of a car unless I had carefully checked that there was no other car approaching from the rear. Likewise I wouldn't dream of exiting a shop doorway unless it was clear to do so. On many occasions I've been hit and pushed over (I'm not very stable on my pins) by idiot shoppers walking out of the shop with their cell phone firmly clamped to their lugholes.Re: Teach drivers how to open their doors.

In June last year a colleague was riding his cycle home when a woman opened her stationary car door and knocked him clean off his bike.
