So your logic is because YOU were a good driver, there are no bad drivers, never have been and never will be.
Then you turn around and say "there are a few bad apples, but they USUALLY get weeded out pretty quickly."
That implies that some bad apples do not get weeded out, which is the truth. It can't be anything but. There are "bad apple" drivers out there.
There's a youtube channel "Ron Pratt" who operates a heavy tow business who's video of the week frequently showcases such bad apple drivers. That's just one area of one state out in the Midwest. Those drivers may get fired but they move on to the next job because firms are desperate for drivers, and the one that did the firing just can't bring themselves to blackball/badmouth/whatever the bad driver so they can't get a job. They will give the bad apple a glowing reference when the next employer calls, so the problem is just perpetuated.
The bad apples don't get weeded out until they kill someone. Then it's too late. Then all truck drivers get a black eye. That's how it works. If all Chevys are bad because you had a couple of issues with your pickup truck, what makes you think that the average person is going to think logically and rationally when the see a bad truck driver kill someone? Of course they're going to think all truck drivers are bad, and good luck trying to sway public opinion.
