Different sizes: an HGV, car and cyclist shown together to compare the road space they occupy.

Different sizes

An HGV, a car and a cyclist occupy very different amounts of road space. This topic looks at those differences from the perspective of the people sharing the road.

HGV Size & Weight: a lorry with the message “Understand the space and weight you manage”.

HGV size & weight

Consider the space and weight you manage when driving an HGV, and what that means for sharing the road with smaller vehicles and vulnerable road users.

Left Turn Risks: an HGV with the message “Spot hazards before you turn left”.

Left turn risks

Explore the risks around a left turn, with attention to people walking and cycling. The focus is on noticing hazards before committing to the manoeuvre.

Observe, Anticipate, Plan: a view from an HGV cab with the message “Stay aware, look ahead and plan for a safer journey”.

Observe, anticipate, plan

Use the view from the cab to discuss looking ahead, anticipating how a situation might develop and connecting those observations to your next driving decision.

Defensive Driving: an HGV with the message “Stay alert, leave space and prepare for the unexpected”.

Defensive driving

Discuss how staying alert, leaving space and preparing for the unexpected can help you respond to changing road situations and reduce risk.

Learning outcomes

What you will learn

  • Recognise the different needs of people walking, cycling and sharing the road with larger vehicles.
  • Identify visibility issues and urban situations that can increase risk.
  • Consider a road situation from outside the cab through an immersive VR experience.
  • Discuss how these perspectives can inform everyday driving decisions.
