This is fantastic investigative journalism. 

Full credit to those who made it happen, whose actions look likely to save
lives.

The Tampa Bay Times is a treasure, their reporting is top notch.

As a cyclist, I try to avoid many professional drivers because I understand
them to be under time pressure that often makes them drive dangerously, as
this article discusses.  I hadn't realized that deferred maintenance could make
them even more dangerous.  Or that any of these companies would hire someone
with a bad driving record.

Christ, that CEO looks like scum.  I wonder if he ever thinks about the people
he's killed.

Can DOTs or law enforcement raid a place (like the FBI does) and impound
broken trucks?
