Motorcar vs Cyclist.

[Nasher]

Just sounds to me like the lorry driver just shot out of the junction not looking properly and used a lawyer to fabricate a story to get him off. It happens all the time with cyclists being killed and very little justice is being done. The sheer amount of times I've read accounts of drivers just pulling out and say I didn't see them is a disgrace and its usually because they aren't looking properly, they just look for cars and if they don't see one they just pull out. There have been campaigns for drivers doing the exact same thing to motorcyclists for years like "Think Bike"

I doubt it, there would have been witnesses most likely.

both the cyclist (chest cam) and lorry had cameras,(maybe doubtful the lorries was wide enough angle) and the court notes reference no witnesses.

I'm intrigued what the rules are ,with respect to trial transcript or, abstracted juror demographic being available .. can't we see how justice is done ?
or, we physically have to go there (in this internet age)

If there were witnesses I doubt they would have bothered to get the opinion of a CCTV expert.

Would be interesting to see if the video of both of them show anything
