You cannot cycle under a truck then blame him.
I don't see anyone here saying it was the lorry driver's fault. What I'm seeing is an analysis of the accident, based on the information we've been given (which is incomplete), and a discussion about how drivers can avoid something like that happening to them.
What I'm saying is that drivers should take more care, and drive more slowly, around vulnerable road users, to give themselves time to react.
What you seem to be saying is that drivers should just hoot their horns at everyone. How far do you take this? All cyclists, obviously. Pedestrians walking along the pavement, who might step out without looking? Other vehicles waiting to turn out of junctions, that might pull out? Vehicles in the next lane, that might change lane without warning?
Horn tooting is a popular pass time here in Spain. Everyone ignores it.
