Is it really inconceivable that someone who has literally driven tractor trailers more than a million miles has seen dozens of people killed in accidents?

No, not at all. I'm just a regular middle aged driver with perhaps 300k miles under my belt and I've passed numerous fatal accidents on the roadway.

I just sat back and tried to estimate (since of course, I don't have a CB in my car and can't follow traffic details like a trucker) but I'd guess I've driven past at least 5 fatalities -- and that's just fatalities I've noticed (body on stretcher, read about it on the news later, etc)
