If it wasn't a bike lane it would have been a car going much faster and likely would have hit instead of the near miss. Maybe she should have a different parking layout so she isn't backing into traffic.

I felt like I was missing something but why are we backing into a bike lane (or a busy street beforehand)? Wouldn’t it be safer driving forward?
