Closed petition All foreign lorries and coaches to have blind spot lens fitted before entering the uk

Closed on 6 November 2013

All foreign lorries and coaches entering the uk to have blind spot lenses fitted as a legal requirement before being allowed to drive on uk roads.
These lenses are already given out free of charge to left hand drive lorries entering the country, once fixed into place (which takes a few minutes) on the vehicles passenger window,the driver is able to see vehicles,bikes etc alongside their vehicle which would otherwise not be visible to them. Very rarely are these lenses put in place by the driver as it is not a legal requirement, therefore, resulting in these large vehicles being a constant hazard for uk road users.
