I don't know about that. The door always takes up some room, so the gap between door and frame is always smaller than between outside edge of car and next object over.

Door zones ARE part of the road used for vehicular operation of vehicles on many roads.
This is silly.

I want to see you rip a car door apart with your bike. (not really, don't try it.)
