To me, it's up the biker to pay attention to what the car is doing. The car quite often can't see you. A bike can go fast but can't stop very fast. I've been riding city streets for a long time. I always watch signal lights and try to predict what a driver is trying to do. Making that green light isn't worth it. Now when a driver doesn't signal, then it's another story. I've had that happen. I ended up putting a huge dent in the door and ripping the mirror off the truck as I rebounded off of it.
