Sharing the RoadStandalone practice
You park beside a bicycle route and are about to open the driver’s door. What should you do first?
A blue car is parked facing east beside the right curb, with all doors closed. A helmeted cyclist approaches from behind on the left side of the parked car.
Correct answer: Check your mirror and look over your shoulder for riders
Why
Check for riders before opening a door. Reaching for the handle with the opposite hand helps turn your body toward the mirror and over your shoulder. Keep the door closed until it is safe; do not force a rider into traffic.
