  The five minute film, which anyone can watch online at www.tfl.gov.uk/cycling has been designed to help cyclists and lorry drivers navigate London´s busy roads - and each other - safely. Filmed from both the cyclists and drivers points of view, it outlines a series of golden rules: * Drivers of left-turning goods vehicles must keep checking their left mirror for cyclists; * Cyclists should remember that if they can't see a vehicle's mirrors, they probably can't be seen by the driver; * Cyclists should avoid undertaking (go up the left-hand side) goods vehicles, and shouldn't undertake a goods vehicle that is stopped at traffic lights, unless the lights have only just turned red; * Cyclists should ensure they position themselves far enough ahead of an goods vehicle (in stopped traffic) that the driver can see them.
