Hello @LondonFire Is there any chance you could follow your own advice? Left turning trucks failing to look out for cyclists at junctions is the most deadly thing when it comes to cycling around London. Seems to be something this driver of yours has forgotten.

@n00dles71 @LondonFire Truck taking a left turn before you reached the area, just slow down and chill out
@StubeStrong @n00dles71 @LondonFire I have to agree. Ride like everyone and everything in front of you has right-of-way. You'll live longer.
@StubeStrong @n00dles71 @LondonFire Exactly. I sympathise with the truck driver. We didn’t learn To drive by watching extra cycle lanes which popped up over the last decade. Cyclists must take ownership of their own safety too.
@StubeStrong @n00dles71 @LondonFire Did you miss the part where they didn’t hit the fire engine because they did precisely that?
@StubeStrong @n00dles71 @LondonFire Started the turn whilst you’d still be a tiny spec in the mirror. By the time you got close enough to see you were clearly deep into their blind spot. HGV’s really really don’t have good visibility and YOU need to account for that. They will have never even seen you.
@StubeStrong @n00dles71 @LondonFire Please show me the section in the Highway Code where it says you can ignore “give way” markings because you have started taking a left turn. Take your time.
@StubeStrong @n00dles71 @LondonFire Traffic going straight through has priority. Truck needed to stop.
