For all you amateurs out there please take note. This is how you truly succeed in the aviation industry. This guy is destined for big things…….quite possibly management material. A real pro that isn’t here to f#!k spiders.
I am sure that this is not the last that we have heard of this guy.

Obviously the A320 didn’t have its ADSB in / out / up / down gadget pinging. How would the ute driver possibly know the A320 was there, it would not display on the Av-runaways APP. Probably no taxiing broadcast on CTAF.
Very hard to understand how they could not have seen each other.
Both the tug and the safety car would have driven past each other just before the collision, so that was a clear reason for both to stop.
Unless the "safety" car was driving much much too fast and/or there was very thick fog.
Maybe the tug was hooting a warning and the safety driver turned around to wave back without realising there was an aircraft attached ?

These are the very same people that pull you over on the ramp for the smallest infraction and threaten to revoke your airside drivers authority. Don't ask me how I know about that.
Can imagine Car 10 would have been in a right tizz.

It's been causing problems in cartoons since the Wile E Coyote was a pup.

Threaten?? These cowboys have revoked many licenses already, up to 6 months, for idiotic reasons such as driving behind an aircraft whilst the beacon was off and having it switched on when almost past it. There are a few newbies amongst them with no idea. I have almost been cleaned up by one who cut through the apron. This was an accident waiting to happen.

"The crash happened at 5.30am (local time) while the unmanned A320 was being towed to an airport gate at the domestic terminal. Passengers were getting ready to board JQ760, bound for Adelaide, before the collision."
