Take the Lane® & Avoid the Door® Campaign!

Maybe it's time for a campaign reminding cyclists of the importance of taking the lane especially when riding alongside parked cars. How much distance should a cyclist place between them and a parked car? As a rule, try to imagine every car door open as you ride. Being doored is not fun even if you live through it.
