Maybe I'm watching a different video, but it seems clear to me in all the shots of truck/cyclist the cyclist is going quicker than the truck. Why do you think the truck is doing the over taking?
This video is trying to suggests that you don't bomb it up the inside of trucks in the hope that they check their mirrors and stop their indicated manoeuvre before they turn you into a pancake.
I agree that another video encouraging drivers to check their mirrors would also be appropriate and provide the balance we all crave. I remember one they did a few years back with a motorcyclist filtering up the outside of a right turning car. I'll try and dig it out later....
Edit: here we are. 1999. How time flies. Perhaps it needs putting out again, but for some reason it's always stuck with me:

yeah, obviously - but I meant that the video doesn't imply or suggest any wrongdoing on the drivers behalf.
The message says the cyclist is at fault.
If they kept everything the same about the advert but had the driver being led away in cuffs/police car, or similar, then we wouldn't be having this conversation.
