Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
You have parked along a busy street and need to get out on the driver's side, next to moving traffic. What should you do?
Correct answer: Look back for cars and bicyclists, open the door only when it is safe, and close it quickly.
Why
Getting out on the curb side is safer when you can. Bicyclists often ride near parked cars and can be thrown into traffic when a door opens in front of them, a crash called dooring. Look over your shoulder, not just in the mirror, because a bicycle is easy to miss.
