The Fresnel lens provides an extra downwards view for the HGV driver so that at a glance he can see any vulnerable road user that might be hidden in the mirror blind spot, alongside his passenger door.
Unlike a mirror, Hi Vu affords the driver a normal, (through the window) view of what’s close to his cab, not a reversed or inverted mirror image. That means the driver will assimilate any danger much faster and react far more quickly.
Fresnel lenses are now accepted as a very important visual safety aid for HGV drivers and so organisations such as Transport for London and Crossrail insist that trucks are fitted with lenses before being allowed to undertake transportation work on busy urban roads.
HGV Fleet Managers and Health and Safety Officers agree that simply press-fitting a Hi Vu lens makes perfect economical and safety sense.

Direct Vision Standard
Launching in October 2019 the Direct Vision Standard has been designed to make the streets of London safer for pedestrians and cyclists. The Standard comes into force 12 months later and affects ALL 12 tonne and above vehicles that enter London, with a £550 per day fine for none compliance. It is something that companies have to take very seriously.
The area that this is being enforced is much more that inner London, it stretches all the way out to the M25 in places. Have a look at the map which shows you the areas where regulation is being enforced.
From October 1st 2020 ALL vehicles over 12 tonne GWT will have to have a permit to drive into the controlled area and to get this permit is going to cause a lot of issues.
