Crash rated for exceptional security<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

In the middle of some unnamed desert, a truck is barrelling down the sole stretch of road visible in this arid, desolate landscape. As the lumbering behemoth picks up speed, text on the screen informs us that the truck weighs 6,800 kilograms and is travelling at 50 kilometres per hour.<\/p>\n

Suddenly, and without warning, the vehicle seems to hit an invisible wall, its cabin exploding with the force of the impact. The many-wheeled monster that, mere seconds ago, had been cruising along as effortlessly as a dry leaf floating on a chilly autumn breeze, has been brought to a complete \u2013 and violent \u2013 standstill.<\/p>\n

Only once the dust and debris have settled does the obstruction become visible: a single, inconspicuous cylinder planted in the middle of the road. The scene would have been almost comical \u2013 a seven tonne truck felled by a structure standing no higher than an adult\u2019s knee \u2013 were it not so very impressive.<\/p>\n
