You have no clue about Trucking.

80% of accidents that involve a truck are caused by cars

The University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute — a leader in truck-related crash research, says ATA — studied 8,309 fatal car-truck crashes to determine fault. 81 percent of the time, car drivers were assigned at fault, says the study, versus 27 percent for truck drivers.

A similar study done by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in 2003 studied 10,092 fatal accidents, deeming that cars were responsible 91 percent of the time during head-on crashes, 91 percent of the time in opposite-direction sideswipes, 71 percent of rear-end crashes and 77 percent of same-direction sideswipes.

FMCSA’s studies looked at 6,131 fatal car-truck crashes over a three-year period in 2007, 2008 and 2009. In 2007 and 2008, cars were assigned fault in 85 percent of crashes. The number dropped to 81 percent in 2009.

ATA President Bill Graves says FMCSA needs to take this information into account for its Compliance, Safety, Accountability program and figure out a way to deal with the issue of crash accountability in scoring.

Truckers push themselves far too long on the road to make more money. That has been a constant battle for many decades. They cause lots of accidents. https://newsroom.unsw.edu.au/news/science-tech/truck-drivers-road-too-long-stay-safe Short-range trucking and delivery is going EV. They save a lot of money that way.
You are clueless about nearly everything.

Blatant lie. You are obviously not familiar with DOT regulations at all, or the cause of most accidents involving a truck (a nutcase in a car).

No, it isn't. Trucks have to carry a payload, not batteries.

You show that you swallow Truck, Gun, and Trumpian lies with equal gusto. You know so little and post so much and so badly. There is some regulation now. Truckers and Trucking companies fought those safety laws with all the power they could. EV trucks are not double. You goofy rightys say the same about EV autos. It just is not true.
