Before opening the doors to get out of a vehicle, it is essential to ensure that **no danger is caused to other users**. This is because opening a door can invade the vehicle's lateral space, which is especially dangerous if there are other vehicles, cyclists, or pedestrians nearby.

- **Space on the sides:** When opening the door, it is crucial to maintain an adequate safety distance to avoid collisions. This is part of defensive driving, which seeks to prevent accidents by being aware of what is happening around the vehicle.

- **Blind spots:** Mirrors do not show everything that happens on the sides of the vehicle. There are areas called blind spots that cannot be seen through the mirrors. Therefore, it is important to turn your head and look directly through the window before opening the door, ensuring that no one is in the blind spot.


By following these precautions, the risk of causing accidents when opening the vehicle doors is minimized.
