The government really just expected reduced highway fatalities. Even though that it costs these multibillion dollar companies a little more to let their drivers rest, it sill makes the roads safe for all drivers. Driving while tired is almost as bad as driving under the influence, so making sure that these truck drivers get sleep make sure everything is super safe for everyone.
