Those tend to have no bonnets. So there are some risks and accidents still, but in general they do have better visibility.

And professional drivers.

    They get paid for what they do, their "profession". Most of them are not particularly good ;)

      That may be true, but on average I would expect them to be better drivers than the pick-up-in-the-inner-city crowd, whose choices are already off to a poor start before they turn the ignition key, after all, they picked the wrong vehicle for the surroundings.

      Don't they also need special driver licences, which can have more stringent rules?

        Yes, but that is mostly "one time you get it" and then some courses every now and then. You do have more stringent medical rules at every renewal.
