On the open road in the Pilbara, an in-cabin camera captured live footage of Volvo’s safety features in action.
It records the moment one of our Volvo FH16 60 metre Quad Roadtrain trucks travelling at 85km/hr collides head on with a detached trailer from a road-train travelling in the opposite direction.
This is the first time, to our knowledge, that a live crash has been captured globally in a Volvo truck.

The driver stayed alert and was able to walk away from the incident with Zero Harm.
