因开车门不当而致使的事故，十分容易见到，而且一旦发生，就可能是惨剧。
The phenomenon of bikers getting hit by an opening car door is so common it has its own term: dooring.
骑车人被打开的汽车门撞到，这样的情况非常容易见到，英语里有个专门的词来描述，那就是dooring。
According to a study in Chicago, as many as 1 in 5 bicycle accidents involve car doors in total, there is an average of nearly one dooring per day in the Windy City.
依据芝加哥的一项调查，有多达五分之一的自行车事故和开车门有关。总体来看，在芝加哥平均天天都会发生一块由于开车门撞到骑车人的事故。
Even when bikers swerve to avoid doors, they can end up getting hit by cars.
即便骑车人快点转弯想避开，也难免被撞到。
开车门引发的悲剧，大家该怎么样防止？
近期，一种荷兰式开车门法，忽然在网上火了。
什么是荷兰式开车门法？这是一种荷兰人创造的Dutch Reach。荷兰人用离车门最远的手去开车门，强迫自己扭动身体向后看。简单来讲就是：左侧用右手开，右侧用左手开。
当你用离车门较远的那只手开门时，上半身会自然而然地转动，头部和肩膀就会非常自然地向外看。
The Dutch Reach is a practice where instead of using your near hand usually the drivers left hand to open your car door, you use your far hand. Your right hand.
根据荷兰式开车门法，开车门时不要用离车门近的那只手（一般是司机的左手），而要用离车门远的手，一般是司机的右手。
In doing that, you automatically swivel your body. And you position your head and shoulders so you are looking directly out.
如此做，你的身体就会自动转向，头和肩膀的地方也会移动，自然向外看。
First, past the rearview mirror. And then, you are very easily able to look back and see if there are oncoming bicycles or cars or whatever.
你的视线第一会扫过后视镜，之后比较容易就能向后看，发现后方是不是有驶来的自行车、汽车或者别的什么。
The simplicity of the approach is part of its genius.
这个办法很简单，也正是其精妙之处。
多做一个动作，就能防止交通事故，你记住了吗？
