this morning J5 of the M25 clockwise
A bike was filtering stationary traffic @20/25mph woman in the back seat of a cage opens the door
took him straight out
I stopped to help, the rider was ok just a painful left leg and left hand. The bike was a mess!
Anyway, Tony from Bishop Stomford, if you read this hope all goes ok and you mend soon.
Good luck fella.
FFS, Wot she opening door for on the m25, gonna go for a leisurely stroll?
Hope the doods ok, least the claim should be str8 forward.
dozy cow!, thats women for ya 
Stupid bitch!!
Have to say thou, this is EXACTLY why I centrally lock my car doors when the kids are in the back
Crazy…Why?
Hope the Police were called…Surely opening a door on a motorway is an offence in itself
Saw this on the news this morning and didnt take that route, they shut the M25? Well according to the news anyway.
Hope the guys gets better soon, and hope the law comes down hard on the dozy b!tch. 
Yes the Mway was closed but only for about 10mins.
The woman that opened the door stayed at the scene so will hopefully get what she deserves.
The biker concerned phoned me last night to say thanks, he is fine only a few aches and pains but he was having problems finding where his bike was recovered to.
Good point Drei, I was thinking the same.
I would think that as the driver is legally in charge of the car on the road he would be responsible,and his insurance would pay up! but I could be wrong.
The driver did admit liability though at the scene as when he gave his statement to plod he said
" its my fault I shouldn’t have let her open the door" don’t know if he could retract that later.
Interesting one this, hope you guys can shed more light on it.
Get well soon dude
I agree with busa, if a passenger is not wearing a seat belt the driver takes the rap for it so surely this would be the responsibilty of the driver and his/her insurance to sort out.
Hopefully it’s the drivers responsibility for passenger action
Drivers are only responsible for front seat passengers and rear seat children. Rear seat passengers not wearing a seat belt etc are their own responsibility and face their own charges and penalties.
I doubt the driver is responsible, but his insurrance may cover third party damage caused by passengers in the small print. If the vehicle was stationary the passenger is perfectly entitled to leave it. The damage she does as she does so will probably be her responsibility and she could be liable for a charge for criminal damage if she was adjudged to have acted recklessly as to whether damge to property resulted. Getting out of a car on a motorway for no good reason is pretty reckless and could lead to a claim for criminal injury compensation.
However, most household insurance policies include some personal liability insurrance which would cover the amount of damage done here.
