Apparently you didn't read what I wrote, your generalizations are all wrong. Truckers in general, and trucking as a whole are much better now than at any time in trucking history as far as accidents and safety goes. All companies are required to provide continuing education and safety training and to make sure that all drivers attend. With the new CSA rules especially, bad drivers are being cleaned out very quickly because shippers look at CSA scores and deny loads to companies with high scores. You say that you observe more bad drivers than good, which is a totally false statement. There certainly are bad drivers out there, but to say that most drivers are bad, or that drivers in general are worse than they used to be is a false statement. To say that you see as much of what you claim to see of bad driving by truckers is a gross exaggeration. I'm sure you've seen what you say, but it's a very tiny portion of the over all, not an industry wide issue. I do consider it an insult because you insinuated that my industry is full of people that are so dumb and uncaring that we run up and down the road wantonly killing poor defenseless car drivers because we just don't care. What a foolish thing to insinuate, and it's not backed up by any facts or research.
