HGV Blind Spots

Roger Geffen from CTC and some bloke from the AA have just been interviewed on BBC news about cycle safety. The issue of female fatalities from HGVs in London came up. At least this is getting some national attention today.

I agree that it's good getting this issue addressed in the media, though I am very tired of hearing the same explanations for the large % of female deaths. Unconfident women over and over again. Look at the women killed this year. That was not the case. I think a closer look needs to be taken. I think blaming their deaths on being timid and frightened is a mistake. Was shocked to hear that come out of Roger's mouth. The CTC should know better.
