*audible gasp*
@basil 😱️ The alertness of the car driver amazes me. I wouldn't have been so quick. A shiver runs down my spine thinking about it.
@thumb a good example of why we get told to ride away from parked cars and why drivers are told to leave more than just the minimum passing space.

@basil
Since 2018 the traffic code was updated here: under 50 kph (35 mph), drivers should keep a distance of 1 m (39 inches) from riding cyclists; above 50, 1.5 m (5 feet). Since most people can't remember those distances or can't gauge it, they give a wider berth than necessary; I'm always grateful for that!

I always scrutinize parked cars' windows when I ride besides them. It makes me nervous...

That cyclist was very lucky. 😱

@basil Quit sharing this stuff. I'm scared shitless now. So close to having a pancake for a head. Damn.

My heart almost jump through my throat.
