It also prohibits a person from leaving a car door open to moving traffic longer than necessary to load or unload passengers. This statute places liability primarily on the person opening the door, rather than the cyclist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cyclists are advised to avoid the \u201cdoor zone,\u201d which is the space that an open car door extends beyond the parked car.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Serious Injuries in a Dooring Accident<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even when cyclists are traveling at low speeds, dooring accidents can lead to serious injuries. A dooring accident can also have a domino effect. A bicycle rider in a dooring accident may be thrown off their bike and onto the pavement. They may also swerve to avoid the car door, only to be hit by another vehicle traveling alongside them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Injuries can be severe and life-threatening. Some common injuries in dooring accidents include:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-arrow-list\">\n<li><strong>Traumatic brain injuries<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spinal cord injuries<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Broken bones<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Internal injuries and organ damage<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Soft-tissue injuries<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Road rash<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Neck injuries<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Face, eye, and dental injuries&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These can be catastrophic injuries, requiring surgery, physical therapy, and long-term rehabilitation. Some injuries may be permanent. Wearing a properly fitted helmet can reduce the risk of suffering a serious head injury. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you or a loved one suffered injuries in a dooring accident, seek medical attention and consider speaking with an experienced personal injury lawyer. A lawyer can help you recover compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is the Dutch Reach?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How the Dutch Reach Saves Lives | Outside\" width=\"1216\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GzIf80eSfCg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A simple and effective way to prevent dooring accidents is something called the \u201cDutch Reach.\u201d It originated in the Netherlands and is a way to open a car door safely without hitting an oncoming cyclist or driver.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-arrow-list\">\n<li><strong>Reach:<\/strong>&nbsp;Use your hand farthest from the door to open it.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Swivel:<\/strong>&nbsp;This action naturally makes you turn your body towards the door, helping you to look over your shoulder.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Look Back:<\/strong>&nbsp;Check your mirrors and blind spot for approaching cyclists or other traffic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Open Slowly:<\/strong>&nbsp;Open the door slightly to ensure it\u2019s safe to fully open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Exit Facing Traffic:<\/strong>&nbsp;When you exit, you\u2019re facing the oncoming traffic, which increases awareness.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">May Is National Bike Month&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every May, the League of American Bicyclists celebrates National Bike Month.
