The massive amount of extra manouvering that would be required for HGVs to acheive this would significantly increase the risks on the roads. Furthermore there are certain developments and building works that simply could not be done with the absence of HGVs due to access only being available through a left turn.
Besides, left turns themselves aren't dangerous, it's the person doing the turn.
