Both me and the lorry drivers are taking vehicles on the road that are dangerous to vulnerable road users. Mirrors that obviate blind spots can be bought for £30. If a driver doesn't check the area in front of his vehicle before setting off at a junction, in a city swarming with cyclists, and crushes and kills a cyclist, he doesn't even get charged with anything.
