Hang Back is a PSA for cyclist safety that has been nominated for PSA of the Year by Shots. The PSA warns of the dangers of riding alongside lorries (big trucks in USA speak) as they turn left. The UK Department of Transport and AMV BBDO, London,created this spot to raise awareness of the dangers of being caught between a lorry and a left turn and do so by depicting a number of things that riders wouldn’t want to me caught between, including a falling piano and a butcher’s knife.
