Danger! HGVs

Lorry firms have been given more time to tackle “blind spot” problems with HGVs being driven in London, despite concerns being expressed by cycle campaigners.

Tougher rules on the cameras, mirrors and sensors that must be fitted to lorries weighing 12 tonnes or more come into force on October 28.

But Transport for London has offered the haulage industry an additional six months to fit safety equipment to about 216,000 lorries with the lowest safety ratings.
