因“開車門”不當而導致的事故,十分常見,而且一旦發生,就可能是慘劇。
The phenomenon of bikers getting hit by an opening car door is so common it has its own term: dooring.
騎車人被打開的汽車門撞到,這種情況很常見,英語(精品課)里有個專門的詞來描述,那就是dooring。
According to a study in Chicago, as many as 1 in 5 bicycle accidents involve car doors – in total, there is an average of nearly one dooring per day in the Windy City.
根據芝加哥的一項調查,有多達五分之一的自行車事故和開車門有關??傮w來看,在芝加哥平均每天都會發生一起因為開車門撞到騎車人的事故。
Even when bikers swerve to avoid doors, they can end up getting hit by cars.
即使騎車人趕緊轉彎想避開,也難免被撞到。
開車門引發的悲劇,我們該如何避免?
最近,一種“荷蘭式開車門”法,突然在網上火了。
什么是“荷蘭式開車門法”?這是一種荷蘭人發明的Dutch Reach。荷蘭人用“離車門最遠的手”去開車門,強迫自己扭動身體向后看。簡單來說就是:左邊用右手開,右邊用左手開。
當你使用離車門較遠的那只手開門時,上半身會自然而然地轉動,頭部和肩膀就會很自然地向外看。
