| The DfT’s THINK! campaign states that a third of collisions between cyclists & lorries happen at a left turn, many due to blind spots. Now, one start-up company is about to use space technology to eliminate the issue of blind spots in lorries, buses and other large vehicles altogether. SeeCycle is developing a system that makes cyclists more visible to HGVs & buses by creating a ‘virtual protective field’ around the vehicle, which alerts the driver when a cyclist moves into their blind spot. |
