There are videos on you tube where lorries can be seen pushing cars along the road without the driver realising.
The original reports said motorcycle vs lorry, but later ones said it was a hit a run by a "small dark coloured vehicle" - don't know if maybe the collision with the hit and runner pushed him into the lorry's path , but I sure hope the person either hands themself in, or is brought to answer for this another way!
