  Why are some of trying to create or put an example of other incidents. Some incidents are he cyclists fault, others are drivers/pedestrian/t ruckers. TO THIS PARTICULAR INCIDENT the driver was in wrong (my opinion) as they should have ensured he road side was clear!!! TO THE LADY IN PENGE BY POLICE STATION... in this cituation the cyclist is STUPID and is endangering there own life!!! TO FANKSUTTON... i agree its a disgrace that cyclist who are in th wrong...why do they not have licence plates as the laws of the road are for he "road" not just car/van/truck drivers...this should apply to all who use the "roads".

  But we don't know that the driver was wrong because we haven't got all of the details. Whilst the law would firstly say that it's the fault of the person opening the door, there's other factors that would mitigate this. i.e. was the cyclist speeding? Did they have lights on their bike (as it was dark at that time)?"
