Thank you, Ariel, and Tulip! I can see slower speed being just a little less unnerving, but frightening all the same!

And, yes, if we get the name of the company and licence number, DH wants to talk to them. He'd like to see what they say before posting their company name at all the bike shops as cycling-unfriendly business. I want to file a report for exactly the reason you mentioned. With any luck, though, no-one ever finds themself in that same position with that truck!

Hugs and butterflies,
