    "1 Avoid lorries
    Never wait between the kerb and a lorry at a junction. If it turns left, the driver may not see you. Stay well behind or, preferably, in front, where you can be seen."

    We all know that there are much more cyclists on the roads. As a result the cycle boxes are usually full in rush hours. It's the sense of self and 'I must preferably get to the front by all means' that leads cyclists into dangerous positions. Not only is the inherent design but also the load capacities of cycle infrastructure that are not fit for purpose.

    Helmet.
