The "Dutch Reach" car-door opening technique prevents injury to cyclists

Monday March 11, 2019. 06:26 PM , from BoingBoing
One of my fears is opening my car door just as a cyclist is coming by, causing a dangerous collision. I always look before I open, but I'm going to start opening the door with a 'Dutch Reach' as an added precaution. It's simple to do: open the door with your right hand, which forces you to look over your shoulder and look for oncoming bikes.
