Construction lorries driving into London will be made to travel routes that minimise the number of left turns they take to improve road safety, it has been announced.The Great London Authority will use planning powers to require building firms to bring supplies in and out of through safer routes that minimise risk to people on bikes.A disproportionate share of deaths and serious injuries to pedestrians and cyclists in London are dealt out by lorries.

So if they keep turning right...won't they end up going in circles?

All I am waiting for is people to actually read the article Nems and then make views.
But your bitching is also amusing

read it...bloody daft if you ask me...

sure cyclist get killed...

90% of which could be fairly adjudged to have commited suicide in any rational world...

now ole Borris wants to make his mind up, becasue pretty soon suppliers outside of london are going to stick two fingers up and say if you want this....come and get it, cos we aint bringing it....

Its becomming not worthwhile to supply our capital city.

cyclists need to stop thinking they are just like cars only smaller
they need to stop thinking they have the right to sneak up the sides of vehicles, and take their place in traffic queues.
same a motor cyclists...

if you are behind something big and lumpy that could tread on you STAY behind it until it is completely safe to get past it....stop being prats.....

grrrrr...dont get me started about cyclists......

Yes - never argue with a large lorry, even if the driver is in the wrong.
