Rules To Over Take Street Car?
I was driving down Dundas earlier today, and I was driving to a stop light on the right lane. There was only one car at the stop light on my lane. There was also a street car on the left lane 4 or 5 cars back from the stop light. Totally unexpected, the street car driver opened the door the moment I passed the back door when I was still driving 25 or km/h. I knew I couldn't stop in time, so I went right through. Few seconds later, the street car driver came out of the street car and started banging on my window. I opened the door, and he started swearing at me. I said sorry, and he continued for another few profanity before he went back to the street car.
No cops around, so no tickets. But I'm curious to know who's right and who's wrong here? I personally don't think I did anything wrong. If I were to stop, I would have been slamming on my brake. Shouldn't the street car driver check for his blind spot before opening the door?????
Thanks!!
