David Levett died after a crash near Daventry where the hard shoulder was used as an extra lane.
The lorry driver, a Turkish national, was charged with causing death by dangerous driving but is believed to have fled to Turkey before court proceedings began, Northamptonshire Police said.Mr Levett was taken to hospital but died about a month later from his injuries., Senior Coroner for Northamptonshire Anne Pember said the crash happened on an "all-lane-running smart motorway" meaning there "was nowhere for the driver of the first vehicle to park safely".
National Highways Regional Director, Andrew Jinks, offered condolences to all involved and said: "We care about everyone who uses our roads and are continuing to make our network as safe as possible. "We have committed £900m to safety improvements on the network, including building additional places to stop in an emergency and installing new technology to spot stopped vehicles."
He added that "safety on our roads remains an absolute priority" and the agency would respond to the coroner's concerns.
