Subject: I still would venture a guess that there are more safe...
It's the drunk or distracted driver going 100mph behind the wheel of a SUV that scares me more than a commercial truck.
Besides, aren't ALL drivers a risk to the road if they're driving and have a medical history that makes them subject to seizures, passing out, or heart failure?
I realize the study is singling out the commercial vehicle drivers because of their size. But the roads are never going to be 100% "safe" as long as humans are involved.
