There's lots of theories about this film - did the lorry represent the devil? Perhaps it didn't really exist and was just a symbol of all his fears chasing him (his disintegrating marriage - work problems). Or perhaps it was man's first encounter with an autonomous truck that had been programmed by some errant NASA / MIT employee.
It's great film - I first saw it around 1973 as part of a double bill (the other film was Pete 'n' Tilly - perhaps a strange choice but then again like Pete 'n' Tilly Duel could be seen as another dysfunctional relationship).

Which just happened to have a built in android arm and hand to wave at drivers to let them know to pass his slow moving rig?
