Worse than patronising given the injury statistics. Most of the recent dead could have been as alert as they wanted, they were still killed by bad driving.
If the majority of recent dead have been killed by being left hooked (rather than undertaking a left turning vehicle) then maybe those signs/stickers (along with the posters, adverts and other education) are doing their job.
I just don't see the point in having a go at the stickers/signs just because lorries kill loads of people in different circumstances.
Except the death stats predate the stickers, so no the stickers could not have caused the distribution of blame. . If the stickers did anything the distribution would have changed.
