"I remember reading a claim that logistics companies will often tell their drivers to break traffic laws" I don't think most drivers are waiting for permission

  I get what you mean. The sibling comment about “incentives” helps to paint an even more complete picture. The drivers have a pay incentive to be impatient, increasing the number of instances in which they choose to do this sort of thing regardless of what Management “allows”. They’d just hope to get away with it. I mean to bring up the point that Management is complicit in this. They might fire this driver as a token measure because someone died (part of me even sees the driver as a victim in such a scenario) but they’re not going to stop encouraging the behavior that gets people killed. It’s not much speculation that one of Management’s primary concerns right now is “how expensive” this is and probably not much consideration is given about how to improve the situation. (Especially not if the solutions are all cost and no gain; it would be irresponsible of them to lower their profitability if they’re publicly traded. /s)
