EXCLUSIVE: The family of a truck driver who died in a crash while high on ice has been awarded a payout of more than half a million dollars after the Workers Compensation Commission found he was acting within the course of his employment at the time. Darren Hughes, 42, had worked for up to 36 hours and had been smoking what his partner described as "little rocks ⦠in a glass pipe" to help him stay awake, when his B-double semi-trailer veered off the road and into the bedroom of a converted petrol station where an elderly couple were asleep, just after 3am in the South Australian town of Bordertown on December 12, 2013.
