That's a tragic story, but you don't need a bike lane to get doored. I was zipping thru congested traffic when a car passenger decided it was time to get out to go shopping. Took the corner of the door into my left shoulder. Put a nice hole into my shoulder and banged me up, but luckily nothing worse.
Thoughts go out to that girl and the guy from this recent event.
