Better design of HGVs is key to improving safety for cyclists

[QUOTE 5456565, member: 9609"]ever tried driving a tractor on a hot summers day, no matter how much air con, reflective glass etc, it can get very uncomfortable in the hot sun. So all i'm saying is could there be side effect to the very slight (if any) benefits in increased visibility, in that drivers are going to be more stressed and hence more likely to make mistakes?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, because buses have no glass.

People are getting hot under the collar.

I think we should get proper bloke blokes driving again, ones with ruddy complexions, calloused hands and neckerchiefs. Get the metrosexuals out of the cabs.

Sounds dangerous because it's only a short step from ruddy complexions, calloused hands and neckerchiefs to rouge, moisturisers and cravats!
