As a Dutch person. We don't do this. We just look in the mirror.
Question to the Americans. If you crash into that door is that a liability case? I would thing litigation wise the car driver is liable, am I right?
Maybe relevant: As I was driving my car into a parking space, the guy in the next car over suddenly opened the driver's side door. It happened so quickly no human could have stopped in time. At first his insurance tried to blame me, but my insurance pointed out that he was at fault because he opened his door into traffic. He paid for damages.
That is relevant.
it is, except both people willl sue each other.
When I was in school, a guy in a car hit me riding my bike in a parking lot. He tried seeing me (my parents more correctly). He ended up paying for my first year of college. It wasn't that much money, this was a long time ago.
Yeah but back passenger seats have no mirror. As a Dutch person I have taught my kids to do the reach.
