Yep, good point. I deal with HGV road accidents every day. I have lost count of the amount of cyclists having a run-in with HGV's and loosing.

While there is still a lot to be done with drivers looking out for cyclists, there is a lot cyclists can do to stay out of trouble around HGV's.

Rule number one is: No matter what the circumstance, never ever move up the nearside (left) of a HGV... ever.
