• Abstract:
  On urban streets, bicyclists must often ride in the narrow gap between traffic and parked cars, where they may become victims of a "dooring" crash, in which the door of a parked car opens suddenly into the bicyclist's path. The bicyclist can be injured by striking the door and being thrown from the bicycle or by swerving into traffic to avoid the open car door.
