Compare the appalling record that the road freight industry has compared with buses and bus drivers similar training, but HGVs have been involved in 53 per cent of London cyclist deaths in the last four years, while accounting for only four per cent of traffic.
So, are cyclists taking more risks around lorries than buses, or does something else suggest itself?
