    It’s not so much the quality of the drivers … it’s the quantity

    If you have a hundred drivers and you say that 1 percent of them are bad drivers … you have one bad driver

    If you have a thousand, now you have ten

    There are now an estimated 400,000 trucks dedicated to just transporting good on the highway and if you were to say that 1 percent of them were bad drivers … that’s 4,000 bad drivers riding trucks on the highway

    Compared to what the highways were like 20, 30, 40 years ago … the highways have literally become rail networks with thousands of trucks everywhere with drivers pushing the limits of the regulations because they make little to no money as drivers
