Received my first dooring and this was the result. Could have been worse.

Totally understand your rage, been there looking like a lunatic also. Now if more ridership increases then more doorings will take place, then the car industry may have to change the way thier car doors open due to increasing reports of doorings.

Alternately, as ridership increases, then doorings decline, because of fewer people in cars, or a greater space in public consciousness of bikes existing.

More people on bikes tracks steadily with safer biking. Also auto industry has probably never done anyting to even acknowledge the legitimacy of biking in any way, so don't hold your breath there.

I was actually involved in an accident the other day. On Division and Honore. But the situation ended in me falling in the best way possible. Like you, Ive a bruise on my upper bicep area.
