Then why/how would the water access door already be open? It's unlikely anyone would have opened it after the accident, so it's logical it was opened before.
As a guess I'd suggest it's more likely the truck was positioned as normal, the operator got out, opened the accesss door but had left the (auto-gearbox) truck in reverse and it just trundled off without him.
