One of our projects this last year was with a mining company in Russia (http://www.belaz-mining.com/eng/belaz/30t.html http://www.belaz-mining.com/eng/belaz/30t.html / Russian video of our trucks http://auto.tut.by/news/autobusiness/346004.html http://auto.tut.by/news/autobusiness/346004.html). At least one of their mining areas is highly irradiated. The radiation is so high that drivers reach their life-time radiation limit in about 6 months of driving. So they're automating their fleet of trucks to avoid the need to constantly replace drivers.
