Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: When the vehicle is stationary and you have made sure there is no danger.
You may open the door when the vehicle has come to a complete stop, never while it is moving, even very slowly. First, check that you will not endanger or obstruct anyone, especially cyclists, like the one passing beside the car in the image. If the door would get in someone's way, wait for them to pass, even though you are stopped.
