Rather strange the driver not realising he was pushing a car but there may be reasons, it is over 20 years ago that I last drove an artic but the drivers' forward view although much better than that when driving a car is much higher and depending on the position of the drivers' seat, may have been set low and how far back it is it may well be possible not to see it, give an example, had one of the mechanics at the front of the truck one day after putting on a new wiper blade, when he jumped to the ground and stood close I could only see his head and he was taller than a car. However, I would have thought he may have felt a bump or even heard the tyres screeching from the car!! :dunno:

Wonder how much the car tyres were flat spotted? *-)

It must have cause the lorry to vibrate and the noise and handling must've been different

He should have known.

If he didn't , then maybe he was not paying attention......

Odd for sure *-)
