Design Idea: Move the car door handle to reduce cyclist Accidents

A Dutch Reach is a technique of opening a car door using your opposite hand to encourage looking around for approaching traffic, including cyclists.

The placement of most car door latches seems to be ergonomically designed for easy use with the nearest hand.

If the handle was simply moved back along the door, then it would it awkward to use the nearest hand and encourage the use of the opposite hand.

What do you think? Could this work as a design?



Great design resource
