2015-02-19 - Rider Down/Fatality - Victoria St

The lorry involved today belonged to haulage contractor Gordon - the same firm whose HGV was involved in the death of hospital porter Brian Holt in Mile End Road in 2013 {LFGSS Rider Down thread}.

Gordon's boss Arran Gordon told the Standard: "We are sorry for the family's loss. the driver is devastated."

It is understood that the vehicle involved at Victoria was fitted with cameras and that video evidence of the collision will be available to police.

wonderings:

1. was the Gordon HGV fitted with the latest safety equipment (in addition to the cameras) - that meets LCC guidelines?
   
2. had the driver (as employed by Gordon) had urban driving training that meets the LCC guidelines?
