What I don’t get is that this is useful regardless of bikes. If you’re opening your door on the street side, then a vehicle could also rip out your door/you. The “Dutch reach” prevents that just as much as it prevents killing a cyclist. I dunno I do live in the Netherlands so maybe my perception is warped, but I’d never just swing my door open street-side without checking, bikes or no bikes.
