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.
Firefighters regularly attend road traffic collisions, many could have been avoided. Make sure you are travelling safely around London - whether you are a pedestrian, cyclist or driver. Look out for each other and

It's my understanding from the Highway Code rule H3 that just because you're in a truck it doesn't exempt you from stopping and waiting....
