Yes, and on large building sites, e.g. the Shard concrete pour, they're on punishing schedules, and alone in the cab. We should achieve far more Direct Vision lorries now (having said that, I've been looking out for them and I don't think I've seen any in Central London yet), but having a second person in the cab to watch the nearside would also be good.
This may have changed since I was involved with tipper lorries but the drivers were paid in such a way the more loads you did the more you got.
