New Cycle Safety Campaign: Watch Out!

To reduce the number of incidents involving cyclists and lorries, TfL are giving out free "safety lenses" to freight companies operating vehicles in London. Stuck to the passenger window, these improve lorry drivers' vision of cyclists riding close to their cab.
Reciprocally, they're giving away environmentally friendly wind-up powered secondary lights to cyclists to help improve their visibility (email cyclesafety@tfl.gov.uk to apply for yours), and are promoting free or subsidised adult cycle training throughout the city.
Seriously, though. Do the test. We're dying to make gags about it but we'll only spoil it for you.
