Who would have been at fault?

Hi.

I've recently started cycling in after changing jobs and on the ride home today I was riding on the nearside of a stationary queue of traffic when a passenger (in a cab, close to the train station) leapt out of the passenger side. I saw him and stopped without hitting him or the door but it was close. Had I made contact would it have been my fault or would the passenger of the cab borne some liability for not having checked? Just curious, as I think I've learned my lesson re care in those circumstances.

Thanks

Kevin
