Dutch_Reach_Illustr_L_Hand_ latch-cyclist_UK010317

Image shows a car occupant, driver or passenger depending on the country's driving side, LEFT hand on door latch, upper torso swiveled a quarter turn right, and head turned facing back over right shoulder out side window where he sees a cyclist's face and helmet about to pass his door.

A driver on right as in UK or a passenger on right front seat as in the USA uses his left, far hand to reach the door latch, swiveling torso and head naturally right & back over his shoulder to look for oncoming traffic. In this image, the occupant sees an on-coming cyclist. This drawing shows how Dutch Reach enables a safer exit from vehicles by making it easy to turn and look back over one’s shoulder and be continuously vigilant before and while opening a car door to exit.
