- Turning left in front of an oncoming bicyclist. Drivers may believe that a bicyclist must stop to allow the motor vehicle to pass, or may simply not want to wait for the bicyclist to cross the intersection.
- Opening a car door in a bicyclist’s path. Drivers may fail to realize that they are opening their door into a bicycle lane or may not account for bicyclists using the roadway or they may migrate to a bicycle lane believing it to be a turn lane.
