The LSHTM study found that, between 1992 and 2006, there was an average of 16 cycling fatalities a year. Out of a total of 242 fatalities, sixty per cent (146) of deaths were in inner London, and 96 deaths (40%) were in outer London. Heavy goods vehicles were involved in 103 (43%) of all incidents, and the vehicle was making a left turn in over half of these (53%).
it concludes,
'Heavy goods vehicles are involved in a disproportionate number of cycling fatalities on the capital’s roads. It is for this reason that we are calling for all freight vehicles over 3.5 tonnes to be removed from urban roads, and for safer, alternative solutions to be sought for transporting essential goods.'
