And some of the stops would have had to occur anyway because of bladders, drive time regulations, etc.

You bring up a good point that fuel savings may be sufficient to compensate drivers for extra time with plenty left over.

The jugs of yellow fluid discarded along highways tell a different story.

10h on, 8h off. A 400 mile trip does not require off-time or stops unless somehow you get so snarled in traffic that you're averaging less than 40mph. Drivers are really good at avoiding needing to stop the rig for bathroom stops.
