We all need to learn the "Dutch Reach". It's common sense. We as car drivers should be aware of vulnerable road users. Be they annoying "MAMILs" or young kid on their first bike.

I would say that in all my years of cycling the one thing that has helped me the most is to try and remain calm, visible, and use what I consider to be an appropriate speed. I have also almost accidentally doored someone once..it's that easy. My relative pulled out on a cyclist with my Mom in the car and both her and the driver were ill after, they were so shook up even though the contact was minimal. There are complete tossers on our roads who go out of their way to harm cyclists but most people are sane and rational, and would never want to do such a thing. There are also tossers on bikes..I am not saying all cyclists are tossers, but as a cyclist myself I have seen my fair share and in some cases I have have had to defend myself as some will turn violent in the blink of an eye.
So on a bike I just take a deep breath and think ahead. I used to react anrgrily a lot but now I realise it seldom helps, you have to let it go unless it's serious and in all cases you have to put your safety first. Our roads can be utter chaos and a lot of people in Britain have simply had enough and want to emigrate. I really do not know if things will improve in the future but I cannot see it happening soon..

Video's like this are all well and good, but they're clearly not showing British roads. Anyone who rides a bike, drives, uses public transport or just walks, knows how problematic our roads can be: they tend to be some or all of the following: small, crowded, windy, and uneven and in many cases, hideously designed.
Even with the best intention you can literally miss someone in a split second and all of a sudden they are there, regardless of your mode of transport. Sure, video's like this help..but they are no guarantee you won't be hit or hit someone.

Slow down before you start pointing blame. Oh and maybe try passing on the right, as most right hand drive vehicles have their mirror set up to favour the driver, not the passenger.
But again, stupid move filtering between the curb and cars. Honestly feel sorry for the driver, you're a full on arsehole.

This is why the highway code does not recommend undertaking on the left. You have to take responsibility for the accident. You weren't in a cycle lane.
When I took my driving test my instructor said always leave a car doors width when overtaking a stationary vehicle, why should bikes be any different. I assume this is on highway code too.
Just cos your on a push bike don't mean you can use different rules.
Passengers don't have to read or even understand highway code so you can't blame her.
Thr drive however deserves a fine for driving off. Should have left his details but not to blame for impatient cyclists.
Because cycling is becoming "Trendy" they seem to thing they can do what they want.

More details......
Back in September 2016 I was involved in a dooring incident, passenger opened door and knocked me off. When I got myself off the floor the female passenger and male driver argued between themselves on who was to blame, passenger didn't get out and driver drove off when lights turned green.
After many phone calls to police finally got a result -
driver - fined £385 and 5 points on his licence for making off from a scene of an accident.
passenger - I decided not to pursue a prosecution on the female because it didn't look malicious just an accident.

Car should have pulled over to let the passenger out, also it was stopped in a keep clear box!
passengers fault for not checking, always look even when parked up just in case someone is walking past.

To be honest I think even you as a cyclist would be capable of making the mistake of opening the car door like that in such a situation. I don't mean it as a criticism - it's one of those things that will happen no matter how much awareness/education there is.

Instead of coming here to mouth off like some prick, why don't you spend your time doing something more productive, including basing views on what happens in this world instead of what you'd like to happen in order to suit your own narcissistic idiocy. Perhaps then you'd feel better about yourself. Perhaps you're the so-called 'forum troll'? Hmm.

I always check when opening a car door, it's just something I automatically do as a driver. Passengers on the other hand are a different kettle of fish because they may not hold a driving licence or have any road sense (or even common sense) so wouldn't think to look before opening the car door.

Irrespective of what the police say, irrespective of personal opinion
I make 2 valid points
Filtering is allowed as per the Highway Code so long as it is safe to continue.
It's the person opening the door who is responsible in making sure it is safe to do so
It's the car owner/drivers responsibility to report an accident and give their details when asked - it does not state/discriminate if the passenger caused an accident - it just says you must report and give your details if your vehicle is involved in an accident.
Therefore IMHO the car owner/driver has committed an offence by failing to stop.
They have also failed to provide their details.
There is no fault with the cyclist - clearly the speed wasn't excessive and had no time to react.
But hey ho the cycle haters will be along to troll this thread like they always do because they haven't the intelligence to find something interesting or better to do.

I agree that dooring is a common problem, especially on account of this country being so crowded.
I read that in some other parts of Europe they tell you to open the door with opposite hand to the one you'd normally open it with. This apparently encourages the occupant to turn their head and focus on what's behind them. To what extent this works however I am not sure.
There's also been reports of cyclists who have unfortunately lost their lives by having a car door flung open on them. Nobody aside from a complete asshole wants to do that, but it's a reminder of the need to pass doors as wide as possible, ideally on the right. And yet, there also appears to be no shortage of asshole type drivers who refuse to respect or even accept this right. For instance passing a cyclist too close and boxing them into the "door zone".. I see it on a regular basis. All you can do I guess is continue about your lawful business, and perhaps film it so they can hopefully see it and correct their error. But most of the time I don't get angry at dooring as (in my experience) it is like you say, an easy mistake to make.

Just want to clarify the situation with "Keep Clear" road markings. They are advisory and not enforceable (except when accompanying zig zag lines to stop parking, like near a school, for example). Only yellow box junctions must legally be kept clear. Any good driver would pay attention to the road marking and keep clear to help other on their way and ease congestion but I don't think we can describe the driver of this car as a good driver.

"it will be difficult to trace the passenger and the driver hasn't committed any offence as such" self fulfilling prophecy if I ever heard one. How about knocking on the registered keeper's door. Finding her social media profile and looking at pictures of her friends. Doesn't take much time or effort. But it is much easier to say it will be too difficult and to do nothing.

17:18 travelling via pedal cycle on School Lane, Didsbury towards Kingsway with clear visibility on dry roads. I filtered on the left-hand side of stationary vehicles towards traffics lights, vehicle reg:- YD05AUA Dark Grey Toyota passenger door opens I have less than 2 seconds to react I collide with open door at a speed of 12-15MPH. As well the vehicle was stationary in a keep clear zone.
I come off my bike and landed hard on the pavement, as I got back on my feet I felt dizzy and was literally seeing stars, pick up my GoPro and put it in my bag pocket thinking it broke while doing this I can hear the driver and passenger argue blaming each other for opening the door.
Neither parties got out of the car or spoke to myself I interrupted and asked the driver to pull over to get his and her details, traffic lights turn green and driver makes off leaving part of his damaged door trim behind.
Contacted the police via 101 and the traffic unit stated no offence has been committed his reason "the drive is not to blame for the actions of a passenger and you won't be able to claim on his insurance (which I knew) " I advised the officer I logged a hit and run they made off from scene of an accident reply "it's a difficult one because you were filtering which I know is in the highway code but it dangerous CYCLIST KNOW THIS BUT YOU DO IT ANYWAY " "I will send out the forms but like I said nothing is going to happen so you don't have to fill them out"
At this point, I knew I wasn't going to get far so I let him finish and the call ended.
16.09.16
contacted the police explained circumstances and they said I was misinformed by the officer, they will get in touch.
2 hours later receive voice mail from the same traffic unit officer saying "been contacted regarding your accident as said yesterday it will be difficult to trace the passenger and the driver hasn't committed any offence as such"

as per comments and multiple phone calls police agree an offensive has been committed

The copper saying it's your fault it flat out lying and should be written up. It is the responsibility of the occupants of the vehicle to ensure it is safe to open doors prior to opening them.
The copper is effectively blaming you for a dooring, as well as a hit-and-run, for nothing more than you being on a bike lawfully filtering. This is not upholding the law, this is abusing it. Of all people, someone in their position should know how serious an act this is, and how serious the consequences are for them.
