If every single mile a truck is driven costs $.20 in insurance then the drivers get less money meaning they quit and newer drivers take over with less experience and Bingo you guessed it you have a self fulfilling problem, due to additional accidents. Now trucking companies will be more dangerous adding to the downward spiral of our current distribution system, with costs passed on and on, on and one, on and on. And do not think this does not effect other forms of transportation like ships and rail, because look at their costs too.
