Today had 3 close calls,first door opened swerved to miss lucky no cars close behind me,if i hadnt have screamed in terror the driver would open the door fully and i would be in the hospital,secondly driver suddenly anchors up for parking space,back wheel locked up and skidded managed to go round car,thirdly driver pulls out without looking ,i was in a cycle lane running along side parked cars.i gotta get out of the habit of riding close to parked cars allowing cars room to pass like i have done for the last 35 years
