I just dont think the majority of cyclists are aware of the dangers, and dont have exposure to the sort of info that would make them aware - having been in several HGV's there is simply no way no matter how good a driver is at the wheel, that they can see cyclists in the majority of positions on the inside, especialy when you take into account the speeds each is moving at.
I still think there are more cyclists out there riding without much of an idea as to how much danger they put themselves in, than there are bad HGV drivers.
