Mike,
Thank you for sharing this. I am saddened to hear of this news from my hometown. The street this happened on is a very busy one and certainly not bike- friendly.

Per previous discussion, when I was out this week, I was making extra effort to check the parked cars I passed; if driver's seat was occupied, two-door vs. four-door. The two-door cars' doors were indeed longer and therefore swing further into traffic.

Craig
