Title: Message
Thank you.  As I said in my previous post, my information may not have been correct.  I hope it helps the person who made the inquiry to find some recourse.  My situation was actually somewhat different, in that the bike and the car were headed towards one another.  Certainly a different scenario from a door suddenly opening up in one's path.

>>If no actual contact is made, then technically, there is no liability.  No crime has been committed or has occurred, at least legally.  
 
That is actually incorrect.  Opening a door in the path of any driver is technically called impeding the flow of traffic, which is a moving violation.  However, if you pass the car on the right hand side and it is the passenger side door that hits, or almost hits, you then you are at fault for not passing on the left.
