If you are on a bike share bike, just brake slow enough to hit door. Bike will be fine, door will be fucked, and it will be their fault.

Yeah, because escalating physical confrontations with random people never goes wrong.

It was an “accident.” Just fake some injury lol

Especially in a country where people are routinely armed.

All good when you have a getaway vehicle and a u-lock!

Children probably have more empathy than adults on how dangerous and literally deadly dooring is tbh

No. Children are made of rubber. They have no idea what morbidity is.

I usually knock on the door gently with one of my knuckles for asshats really obstructing the bike lane.

From the inside it sounds like I hit them, but realistically there's no harm.

I've had one or two people get out of their cars, but most people just get the idea that they shouldn't be parking there and move on.

I couldn't even. Watching this shoet video convinced me to carry a bat if I ever rode a bike in the city. Just smash any vehicle in my way.
