I've seen a film which shows the huge blind spot lorry drivers have when they sit in their cabs. Nothing they can realistically do about it, so complete common sense that cyclists should be aware of this high risk and take more careOriginally Posted by Burney

The lorry overtakes the cyclist, so a bit tricky for the cyclist to do something different... apart from perhaps not cycle.'victim blaming'.

If they had shown the cyclist undertaking the lorry then the video would have been correct.

Yes, it's the lack of civility and care for other road users that's the thing, isn't it.I overtook won the other day before stopping at a set of traffic lights. He pulled up beside me and started bashing the side of my car and waving his hands about
No damage to your car, I hope?
"Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.
"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."
Fortunately not. I did potentially remind him that my car was worth significantly more than his bicycle and indeed, his well-being. Heat of the moment stuff.

He can slow down or stop, hang back and give the lorry a wide berth. At roundabouts, the Highway Code makes it clear that drivers should watch out for lorries and other large vehicles because their physical size means they may have to cross over lanes and their ability to see other road users may be restricted. There's nothing unreasonable in thet suggestion that you let lorries go rather than risk getting crushed - it's basic road safety and awareness of potential hazards. Equally, it's reasonable to point out to cyclists that lorries are big, clumsy vehicles with restricted vision and that discretion might be the better part of valour when it comes to dealing with them.
Surely the Hippocratic Oath would prevent r from striking the fellow?
