on the human mistakes though, i think it's safe to say the controller done fucked up. they should not have given the truck clearance to cross with the plane so close. they did notice what was happening and try to avert it though. but then probably the best mitigation would have been for the plane to go around, cause the heavy diesel truck can't do that.
the pilot did jam on the rudder hard to try and swerve out of the way but it looks like they noticed too late. will be interesting to see the flight recorder analysis
