Do let us know if you gain traction!
@MCamb Im not blaming the victim but I am aware that generally its best to be prepared for "well what can you do too" as the first response. Be Teflon, as they say.

yeah I get you.
I would treat them as two separate campaigns.
1- to raise awareness for drivers and passengers about the danger opening a door without looking can cause (and legal responsibility of the driver).
2- raise awareness for cyclists, ride defensively when possible with a strong primary position, to protect yourself as much as you can - also be aware when you're putting yourself in danger and adjust your speed accordingly.
conflating the two is what I have issue with i think.
no probs, cheers for the input!
yes, i agree with your comment. i actually did remove 'the law' bit before i sent it out - as you pointed out it did feel a bit ott, and i didn't want the letter to sound like i was accusing anyone of anything.
i'm fully aware it'll most likely have no impact whatsoever - but no harm in trying!
