According to the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, 786 truck drivers were killed on the job in 2016.

That’s 78 percent of the 1,012 motor vehicle operator fatalities reported for the year.

Across all occupations in the U.S., there were 5,190 fatalities reported, an increase from 4,846 in 2015.

Construction had 970 fatalities

According to NHTSA data, which was collected from all 50 states and the District of Columbia, 37,461 lives were lost on U.S. roads in 2016, an increase of 5.6 percent from calendar year 2015.

Since Bruce's numbers come from the Department of Labor, I think the 1,012 motor vehicle operator fatalities are professional drivers. Truck drivers are going to be the lion's share of paid drivers. But you also have bus, taxi, limo, and probably others.
