It appears the Dock= statement gets ignored on vehicles if there is no additional statement specifying the vehicle in question as a Harvester, allowing it to dock with vehicles. Repair pads and tank bunkers allow vehicles to dock to them without the Dock statement set on these vehicles at all, and setting Dock= to any other structure on a generic vehicle seems to have no effect at all. Is the Dock= statement wholly redundant or is there a way to get it to work in its basic form, that is, without specifying the vehicle as a harvester? Thanks in advance.

The only units that use Dock= are harvesters & aircraft, what exactly are you trying to achieve anyway?

A vehicle driving to the point specified by the docking location, turning into its UnloadingClass, and by ultimately, I'm trying to achieve evicting passengers at the docking structure (this is a part of a Prison Truck system built via Ares' Chrono Prison logic), so the docking structure should DockUnload the transport that docks to it.

Actually, I did now get the unloading to work by exploiting the unused Weeder system.

EDIT: By extension, this also means the ManualReload docking system does not work in RA2/YR if you can't dock a vehicle to a building without that exploit. Then again... ManualReload seems to get ignored anyways, the vehicle will simply recharge its ammo as usual when depleted.
