Does the driver sit in the box or on top of it?
If insde, does it strike anyone else as odd that they armoured the driver's compartment but didn't armour the motor that could let the driver move out of harm's way? It seems to me that if the motor is damaged the driver and machine could be left stranded, in the path of the bullets/shells/blast that the armour is meant to protect them from.
If on top, was the intent to remove the driver from the immediate hazard of blast if he set something off while dozing (not in the context of sleep)?
