Herr Schick, while I agree about BoJo taking and the crew taking lessons I disagree that that it's not extremely poor driving on the part of the lorry driver. As mentioned earlier, the rears of those sorts of truck have multiple locking mechanisms in place to ensure that sort of thing doesn't happen. Add to that, speeding up on a bend with obvious width issues, speed bumps etc...
Far worse things have happened to cyclists with more diligent HGV drivers being apparently careful so frankly that sort of reckless behaviour is inexcusable as far as I'm concerned.
