Considering fatal accidents with CDL is around 4000. With all things considered that number is relatively low. Considering that a high number of accidents with CDL the CDL driver is NOT at fault.

As long as dispatch can find legal hours and driver shuts off "on duty" while sitting in docks for no pay, the driver is pushed into another load- ready or not
