Written Question
Large Goods Vehicles: Safety
Monday 5th June 2023

Asked by: Charlotte Nichols (Labour - Warrington North)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the Road Vehicles (Authorisation of Special Types) (General) (Amendment) Order 2023 on the safety of (a) pedestrians and (b) cyclists.

Answered by Richard Holden

After an 11-year trial, safety data indicates that the safety rate for cyclists and pedestrians with Longer Semi Trailers is better than for the average HGV. Longer Semi Trailers also reduce the amount of lorries on the road, which provides an additional safety benefit.
