It doesn't make sense to not let your wife ride, just tell her to stay away from the dangers. I understand your concern but cyclint brings a lot to peoples life, try to avoid the negative aspects
The first thing you can all do is tell other cyclists (on your commutes, friends, colleagues etc) to stay away from the insides of HGV, It happens every day. When you see it call it out, tell them dangers and urge them to tell others.
word of mouth will get out quicker than an organised campaign. both together will have a greater impact
There are 7,130 odd people viewing this forum now, if each one of those told one other person we would soon get the message out.
There are an estimated 500,000 bike journeys made in the capital every day, so best get started spreading the word
This is horrible news, i hope they pull through
