Bicycle Safety Public Service Announcement 2
Read this while it loads. First time play may require you to press Play if vid

. The next time it will play through to the end. Don't forget the headphones.
On the road it's called "dooring", the open door to disaster. The driver of a
parked car opens the door without looking behind for approaching bicyclists. The
biker either hits the door or swerves into the traffic lane, either option can be
lethal. In a cooperative world the biker would see the driver in the parked car,
signal to the traffic behind him and then take the lane to avoid the "door zone".
The message in this short video is simple: Watch for doors, Signal, Take the lane,
ShareTheRoad.
