Only if you cause injury or damage, not just because Plod sees you

You would not be taking due care, so not a totally unreasonable thing to be fined for.

Is there an existing offence if you open a car door in the way of a cyclist or pedestrian and they hit it?

It will take years to become the norm but new drivers will have it drummed into them.
