There are regular accidents especially in Germany regarding Trucks and Cyclists especially with turning Right. Here in Germany at Traffic Lights when a “Green” is given the priority is given to Cyclists and Pedestrians, unfortunately Trucks when turning Right cannot see the Cyclists below their Cab, results normally a crushed Cyclist and a death.
Now MB have introduced their “Mirror Cam” System & “Active Drive” on their Actros Truck which should help hopefully to minimise this Problem and deaths. If this is of interest please take a read - Dave
