Peter, possible but doubtful at 7:30 am. What has not been explained in the article is that the driver had gone underneath the lorry to see what was wrong, and as he couldn’t emerge again from the kerbside he decided to stick his head and shoulders out onto the oncoming traffic side with the huge misfortune to do so just as the lady in question was driving past. RIP
My money says she was over the limit or on drugs.
