Let me guess a combination of cruise control & going to sleep, probably got several tacho cards on the go too, who needs to take statutory rest breaks anyway, Edit read the article,a tyre blow out, yet when this was pointed on the autonomous electric HGV nose to tail convoy thread, the carnage a blow out could cause, it wasn't an issue as the electronics could deal with it.......yeah right

Yes. with the "sixpence cab" iirc due to it's shape

"Sixpence" or "threepenny bit"?

Gearbox design couldn't be much simpler, and, err, chain's slack!
