^^^ Indeed, a sticker on the back of a HGV is going to do nothing to protect a cyclist that is left hooked by said HGV. In this case the cyclist never even sees the back of the HGV, just the front, side and underneath.
But, at the other end of the spectrum (of fault/blame), there are also cyclists who believe it is their divine right to continue straight on along a road unimpeded even if that means attempting to undertake HGVs that have already started turning left.
