Interstate corridor traffic (I-40, I-24, I-65) contributing to higher accident rates in commuter corridors
Rural-urban rate spread, with West and Middle Tennessee metro areas running well above East Tennessee's smaller markets
Solid non-standard carrier availability, useful for drivers rebuilding after a lapse, ticket, or accident
