Do you have a trigger on the relevant columns that writes the change info somewhere, or how are you collecting the change information? Awful thin on details.

unless you have some way to order them in insertion order, you can't. You'd need a column that's either an incrementing identity column or a datetime field with a default...

NVARCHAR()??? You sure you need that?

Access Date/Time data type maps to SQL Server Date/Time data type, not DateTime2.

LOL... Part of the problem is the fact that Access uses VBA to accomplish anything complicated (transactions etc), and uses VBA to manipulate the interface etc. Separating the two might...

SELECT A.Col1, A.Col2, BTop.Col1B,...

So far so good. Could you post the expected output of the query you need?

Be brave. try it. LAG() looks at the previous record in a window (defined by the PARTITION clause) and LEAD() looks at the "next" record.

Use a numeric index on the possible values and then use NEW_ID() to generate a random number?

"[Drivers] can technically "own" more than one vehicle personally, but they only drive one for our company really."

I would probably have one table for Drivers and one for Vehicles, and...
