I politely pointed out the scenario, especially the low sun which would have been made worse by the door glass and secondly by the assault screen. Add that to wide the safety rubbers on the door and the other poor off side vision, it made the junction very tricky. However, with his newly gained HGV licence, he considers himself a faultless expert on commercials as well. He is nauseatingly smug!
I think you may find, sometime in the past while turning left he knocked a cyclist off, don't quote me but that is what I vaguely recall.
