While flying 121 cargo for UPS is more than likely safer than flying 135 for Uncle Nasty's Navajo Night Freightways, insurance cos look at statistics.
Google "top ten dangerous professions". It is a list from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Compare truckers to pilots. If I remember correctly, pilots are 3rd or 4th in the most dangerous, while truckers come in near number 8.
