As a trucker I was about to get upset that to solve the problem the government was making the driver more responsible by having an extra mirror to watch. I was thinking that they where not going to do anything else. Its nice to see though that they are offering extra lights and training classes to the cyclist. Its nice to see a lets work together aspect for a change. I wont solve the whole problem but it seems to be a step in the right direction.
