Speaking of lights and reporting registrations, I was once driving up a motorway in Kent and had my car's headlamp and windscreen smashed by a load of stones that fell from a badly loaded, speeding, tipper lorry. I pulled over, repeating the registration, and phoned plod. Turned out the reg was untraceable as according to the police it was supposed to be on a car (!)
The reason construction / tipper lorries are such a problem for cyclists, I'm sure, is principally that they're used by an industry run by fucking charlatans who will cut every corner they can.
