It happened at Curragh mine - Central Qld.
Car had been on site for 48hrs, less than 1000km on clock OCE attempted to retrieve vehicle as hauler was rolling toward it.
Note ROPs over cab has been torn out of cab guard framework, without bending any surrounding metal.
Unseen (still) on back of Ute is new truck wheel chock (un-used)
Car is now on display at entrance of mine site.

I think the intercooler may have a leak. You would also want to check the tyres.
