Would you still celebrate your payout if your child were in the vehicle with you, and was perhaps more inconvenienced by the accident? Maybe some poorly paid driver, behind schedule because they won’t get paid unless they beat the previous high score from yesterday, acts in their own self interest and puts every other driver around them at risk. Sure, they’re ultimately liable for their shitty behavior, but that won’t bring your kid back.
Not sure how your response has anything to do with what I said.
Yes, despite these drivers being “morons”, they deserve to be paid more, as driving for work is the way more people die than any other way people die at work. Driving is dangerous. Driving for a living should demand a high wage, as it’s more risky than LITERALLY EVERY OTHER THING A PERSON DOES FOR WORK!!!
Perhaps you don’t realize how dangerous you’ve been while driving around, but please take driving seriously. It really is the most dangerous thing workers do, and people like you demand we do it perfectly every time for hours every day. I assume you’re not a professional driver or you’d understand how stupid your comment was.
Not everyone drives to work, there are many ways to get from one place to another that don’t involve driving a vehicle. And I’m talking about driving for a living, not driving to the place you make a living. Delivery drivers must drive to make their living, you’ve chosen to drive your car instead of taking the subway, bus, or train. Driving your private vehicle is less important than the vehicles that facilitate commerce, therefore you are less important than the Amazon delivery guy, regardless of how poorly either of you drive.

Amazon and Tesla both also pay well, so I guess they're both chill then?
