A system has at least one sensor 622a removably attachable to an auxiliary vehicle 615, Figure 6B for attachment to a primary vehicle 610. The system also has a computer-readable medium storing instructions for execution by a first processor communicatively coupled to the sensor. Data corresponding to an environment of auxiliary vehicle 615 is read from the sensor. A dimension of the auxiliary vehicle and a relative position of the sensor from a primary vehicle are determined based on the environment of the auxiliary vehicle. The dimension and relative position are provided to the primary vehicle. The system is particularly suitable for an autonomous vehicle such as a truck, and may in addition detect objects near the auxiliary vehicle and/or faults in the auxiliary vehicle. Also provided are a corresponding method and computer program.
