Why is the driver door always open to traffic and not to the sidewalk where is more safe? Even in England, cars have the drive wheel on the right you would think the door would open to the sidewalk but nnnooooo is build to incoming traffic too why? LoL:-)
Then the cars should be build according to the buyers needs, if you are an old man and only drive in the city is better to have the door open right and if you drive a lot on two way roads behind box trucks have it open 2 the left. If you are unhappy in your marriage or you drive your mother in law around have it open to uncoming traffic with suicide doors and so on. We are the public and we pay 4 cars so we should decide wich way the door opens, right?
 
Because the drivers view out the windshield is less obstructed if it is on the outside of the lane rather than being on the inside near the curb.

Can you image trying to pass a vehicle and being able to see oncoming traffic if you were sitting on the passenger side (curbside) of the vehicle. Especially if that vehicle in front of you was a box truck.

On this one the engineers got it right.
