Every cyclist’s nightmare: the sudden click of a car door swinging open.

It happens fast, and often without warning. Whether it’s a driver not checking their mirror, or a passenger rushing to get out - being “doored” is one of the most dangerous and frustrating hazards cyclists face.

In this compilation, we’ve rounded up real moments from riders around the world who caught their close calls - and collisions - on Cycliq cameras. From near misses to full-on door slams, each clip is a powerful reminder of why awareness matters.

Some are shocking. Some are all too familiar.

All of them make one thing clear: check before you open.

Why recording matters

It’s hard to believe some of the reckless behaviour that happens on the road. But the best defence is crystal-clear video that leaves no room for debate.

You’ve heard it before: “I’m sure they wouldn’t have done that” or “No one would be that stupid.” But unfortunately, we know better.

With video evidence, there’s no more he-said, she-said. It makes it clear exactly how and why those “what just happened?” moments unfolded. And just as importantly, when drivers know they might be recorded, they’re more likely to think twice before making a dangerous move.

Feel safe. Record your ride. With the dashcam engineered for cyclists.

Since 2012 our mission is to make cycling safer and give you peace of mind when you’re on the bike.

Cycliq's Fly12 Sport and Fly6 Pro bicycle camera and light is the dashcam engineered for cyclists.
