I'll bump a few lorry threads with this very welcome news.
It's the most welcome development that direct vision lorries are now coming closer to reality, as these measures (and the even more welcome, later step of gradually replacing the lorry fleet with lower lorries (like bin lorries) where possible).
Once complete (which, admittedly, will take years), this will virtually eliminate cyclist left hooks from lorries.
Obviously, a newspaper has to try and construct some kind of row here, but the cost to businesses is going to be very small indeed compared to the harm that can be prevented, and all drivers who have tried driving one of the new lorries or one with a partially transparent door have been said to have loved it.
I didn't see this thread at the time, 1894mk2, so glad you got out of that.
