This needs a bump, especially in the light of yesterday
NO MORE LETHAL LORRIES CAMPAIGN
Next Wednesday LCC will be holding their biggest Day of Action ever to eliminate lethal lorries. We will be standing at 10 points across London trying to raise awareness and get all London cyclists involved in the campaign. We will be looking to get thousands more signatures for our petition which is insisting on cycle training for all London council lorry drivers to help improve safety for cyclists.
Lorries make up only 5% of London traffic, but are involved in over half of the cyclist fatalities.
On the Day of Action, LCC staff and volunteers will be located at busy cycle routes all over central London, stopping cyclists and asking them to sign the petition.
We need more cyclists to support us on this day, so if you are passionate about lorry safety then please help us by giving up a couple of hours of your day either on the way to work or on the way home to help collect signatures and make cyclists voice heard.
