[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP since you were in VA this law looks like it's relevant. Lots of people don't look before getting out of parked cars. It's a habit everyone should get into, especially when there might be bicyclists on the road. Dooring Bill Is Now Law In Virginia https://waba.org/blog/2016/04/dooring-bill-is-now-law-in-virginia/[/quote] I think OP needs to assess whether s/he had a reasonable opportunity to open the door when s/he did. If the other driver hit the door because s/he was speeding (and otherwise could have stopped or moved out of the way) or driving too close to the parked car, then it could still be their fault. Otherwise, it's OP's fault.[/quote]
