I was just reading Arriving Today[0] which mentioned that people have studied pay-per-mile for US truckers and come up with pretty clear payment rates that are needed to support safe driving behaviors. I think it was about 60c/mile was majority safe speed and length of drive, but the average is 30c/mile and for individual truckers contracting out, it pushes down towards about 20c/mile.
