Trucks Are Killing Us
I'm all for the safety arguments being made by the author but he does paint the trucking industry as this huge money making business when that really isn't the case.<p>Trucking is a very low margin business. These guys live and die based on controlling costs. It's an industry where innovation is very hard because you really need to justify every dollar spent on R&D.<p>Quoting $700B total industry revenue and saying there's room to spend on safety is meaningless... Would love to see a more in depth analysis on the issue from a financial perspective.
