How no one was hurt here is a miracle!!! The vehicle is parked■■? across the driveway of a house, luckily the residents were not trying to leave their premises
Their car is stuck on the drive until the obstruction is removed, probably overnight.

Where is the driveway then■■?
Where is the driveway?
If you look at the shot of the container, the first cone is almost in line with the driveway.

It is a roundabout - but the private house in question has a driveway leading straight onto it. And that’s where the truck is having a lie-down…

It is. It’s the A1 southbound junction for Washington, just before the services. It is a tight rbt that one and not one you can carry any speed through without getting out of shape. There is a small house just at the side of the rbt too, as the OP says.
Looks like a pathway to me
Oh dear, the Co owner is a mate of mine. I would never work for him as I value our friendship. If you get my drift!

but I couldn’t resist the opening

Roundabout not that tight done it many times in car lorry & on a bike
whos to say it will never happen to them… a moments loss of concentration is all it takes… Its easy to be critical isn’t it
Is this the guy from Middleborough with the courier fleet of tatty vans and 7.5 tonners? When did he start with artics?
Use this roundabout a lot. It’s controlled by full time traffic lights, so I’d guess he was pushing on a bit to avoid the reds. Can’t see a seal on the box, was it empty? If so, he must have been flying to overturn an empty truck!
He’s going nowhere rapid…

That’s him mate. Ex footballer and really nice guy, but his ideas on pay would embarrass a Victorian mill owner. His fleet was once immaculate, but you know what they say about peanuts…
