A Georgia congressman running for one of the country\u2019s most competitive U.S. Senate seats has vowed in social media posts and interviews to make America\u2019s roads safer \u2014 by taking commercial driver\u2019s licenses away from noncitizens.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you can\u2019t read English road signs,\u201d Mike Collins, a Republican, posted on Facebook in April, \u201cyou don\u2019t belong behind the wheel. Period.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins, the owner of a trucking business and a member of the U.S. House of Representatives\u2019 transportation committee, is one of the loudest champions of the Trump administration\u2019s effort to revoke licenses from nearly 200,000 noncitizen commercial drivers, including thousands of truckers. The Trump administration has pushed the policy forward even though its own officials have written that there\u2019s no empirical evidence to show that foreign truckers cause more crashes than truckers who are American citizens.<\/p>\n

At the same time, however, Collins has opposed rules that experts say actually would reduce the odds of serious crashes. Those rules could have required that Collins\u2019 family business sink substantial money into new safety measures for its fleet.<\/p>\n

Over the past 25 years, crashes involving truckers for Collins\u2019 business killed five people and injured more than 50 people \u2014 including one woman who now needs around-the-clock care due to a severe brain injury \u2014 according to federal data, court filings, plaintiffs\u2019 attorneys and police records.<\/p>\n

Drivers and passengers who were injured in those crashes later claimed in lawsuits that truckers for Collins\u2019 business have caused them to collectively incur hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical expenses. The figure the business has paid out is not known because the settlements it reached with crash victims have been confidential, as is common in such suits.\u00a0 Court filings in one suit state that both parties agreed to a $1 million payout from the business\u2019s insurer. Collins\u2019 business denied wrongdoing by truckers and the business itself in those cases.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

ProPublica\u2019s analysis of federal motor vehicle data from the past two years shows that Collins\u2019 business has a higher rate of unsafe driving and speeding violations per mile than the majority of trucking companies with substantial mileage. The analysis also shows that the company\u2019s recent crash rate sits around the median of similar companies, while the rate of injury from those crashes sits in the top fifth.<\/p>\n

Safety experts told ProPublica that some of the technologies opposed by Collins, which include devices on semitrucks to limit their speed and sensors on big rigs to automatically brake in the face of a potential collision, reduce the odds of crashes leading to serious injuries and deaths. The country\u2019s largest trucking trade group \u2014 a group that Collins\u2019 family business is a member of, according to the company\u2019s website \u2014 has supported mandates for those technologies.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are proven technologies,\u201d said Zach Cahalan, executive director of the Truck Safety Coalition, which advocates on behalf of crash victims and their families. He added that the technologies would \u201cprotect those we hold dear on our roads from horrific tragedy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Neither Collins\u2019 campaign nor his congressional office responded to ProPublica\u2019s requests for comment or to questions about his family business\u2019s safety record or his policy positions on trucking safety. His campaign manager declined to make him available for an interview. The business did not respond to questions sent by ProPublica; an employee told ProPublica that press inquiries about the business are handled by Collins\u2019 congressional office.<\/p>\n

In recent years, Collins has described his efforts to keep foreign truckers off the roads as \u201cpurely a safety issue.\u201d He has also questioned the effectiveness of other safety measures and said that they would have saddled his industry with extra costs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to be safe,\u201d Collins said in one congressional hearing. \u201cI don\u2019t know of a trucking company out there that doesn\u2019t want to be safe. And when they are not safe, they are taken off the road.\u201d<\/p>\n

Toward the end of 2023, his first year in Congress, Collins had one of his first chances to support a measure that experts believed could make the roads safer. The Biden administration had proposed a rule that would require the installation of devices to limit the speed of trucks, capping it as low as 60 miles per hour.<\/p>\n

But Collins questioned the need for the rule. He told officials at a transportation committee hearing that the federal government shouldn\u2019t require the safety measure. He said insurance companies already serve as a sufficient speeding deterrent, because they have the ability to cut off coverage to truckers with unsafe driving records. He also said the rule wasn\u2019t needed because of yet another deterrent that had long been in place.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are called speed limit signs,\u201d he said. \u201cThey are enforced by law enforcement.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins\u2019 position stood at odds with the industry\u2019s largest trade group, American Trucking Associations, which that year had expressed support for capping the speeds of trucks between 65 and 70 miles per hour. Collins did not respond to questions about why his views are at odds with ATA, which represents the interests of 37,000 members, including Collins\u2019 family business.<\/p>\n

In 2025, the Trump administration withdrew the speed limiter proposal. U.S. Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy celebrated the decision as one that would get \u201cD.C. bureaucrats OUT of your trucks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins also pushed back against a different proposal, which would have required trucks to have automatic emergency braking systems. That technology can force a truck to slow down if the potential for a collision is detected.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Federal officials had estimated that the braking system mandate could prevent more than 8,000 injuries a year. ATA supported much of the proposal, too. Yet Collins, whose family business has used those systems in some trucks, explained at recent congressional hearings that the technology was \u201cvery expensive\u201d and didn\u2019t work that well. \u201cPeople don\u2019t understand that these things are actually hurting more than they\u2019re helping right now,\u201d Collins said at a hearing last year.<\/p>\n

Some of Collins\u2019 truckers have been involved in crashes because of their alleged failure to slow down, according to citations and police reports obtained by ProPublica. Over the past five years, three people hurt in those crashes have sued Collins\u2019 fleet because its truckers allegedly failed to maintain a safe distance, leading them to cause crashes. The plaintiffs claimed that they sustained serious injuries that cost five to six figures in medical expenses.<\/p>\n

The truckers and Collins\u2019 business denied wrongdoing in the cases. The three cases were dismissed. Lawyers for two plaintiffs said the cases ended in a settlement; a lawyer for the third plaintiff did not respond to multiple requests for comment about the dismissal of the case.<\/p>\n

The fate of automatic emergency braking requirements is now up in the air, too. The Trump administration has delayed the rule from going into effect and, according to ProPublica\u2019s reporting last year, may narrow the scope of it.<\/p>\n

Collins has said that his decades in the business make him especially attuned to safety measures that work, compared with bureaucrats who have \u201cbeaten to death\u201d his industry with too many regulations. In the late 1980s, Collins became the head of the family\u2019s trucking company before he had graduated college. He took over for his dad, Mac Collins, who served as a congressman from 1993 to 2005.<\/p>\n

Shortly into Mike Collins\u2019 time as president, one of his company\u2019s truckers lost control of his trailer. The crash that followed sent a 19-year-old woman to the hospital. The trucker later pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of cocaine. The business drew scrutiny because that trucker had pleaded no contest to drunk driving earlier that year but was allowed to stay on the road. A political opponent later aired a TV ad that accused the family\u2019s trucking business of being cited for \u201cmore than a hundred\u201d safety violations.<\/p>\n

At the time, Mac Collins blamed the company\u2019s insurer for missing the drunk-driving conviction in a background check. He said the ad contained \u201cfalsehoods\u201d but didn\u2019t specify what was wrong. The company ultimately fired the trucker after the crash, Mac Collins told the Ledger-Enquirer in 1994.<\/p>\n

The larger the Collins trucking fleet grew \u2014 into one of about 100 trucks, hauling timber for Georgia-Pacific as well as tires and steel \u2014 the more traffic citations and inspection violations its truckers received. The data ProPublica reviewed showed that truckers have gotten into more than 90 crashes that have led to at least 51 injuries and five deaths since 2001.<\/p>\n

In 2007, one Collins trucker veered into oncoming traffic on a North Carolina highway and hit a white Honda CR-V. The CR-V\u2019s driver, Bridget Murphy, and the trucker both died. Murphy\u2019s estate and two of Murphy\u2019s passengers filed a lawsuit and, according to a court filing in 2009, agreed to a $1 million payout from the company\u2019s liability insurance coverage. The company wrote in a filing that the trucker had been \u201cstricken by a physical impairment beyond his control.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2021, another trucker switched lanes on an Indiana highway and collided into a car driven by Larkin Cooper. She claimed in a lawsuit that the trucker\u2019s \u201cnegligent and reckless\u201d driving caused injuries that forced her to drop out of nursing school and switch to a lesser-paying career. Her lawyer wrote that the total damages were likely to exceed $75,000.<\/p>\n

In 2023, a trucker failed to stop quickly enough while approaching a red traffic light on a northeast Georgia highway, causing a four-vehicle crash, according to court records. Drivers in two vehicles later said in lawsuits that they had sustained serious medical injuries. One of them claimed that the costs to treat his back, knee and neck totaled more than $120,000.<\/p>\n

Collins did not answer ProPublica\u2019s questions about the lawsuits. Lawyers for the family\u2019s business denied wrongdoing in the suits in Indiana and Georgia. Soon after, the business settled for undisclosed sums.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

During a televised debate in April, just weeks before the May 19 Republican primary for the U.S. Senate race, Collins told viewers that his time in the trucking business had taught him how to work across the aisle in Washington, D.C. His political ads feature him behind the wheel of a rig, and his yard signs have a logo of an American flag in the shape of a semi.<\/p>\n

Yet his messaging about making roads safer centers on one main idea: getting noncitizen truckers off the road.<\/p>\n

In one social video from November, Collins was on one side of a split screen, speaking about a sign on the other screen.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know what this sign says?\u201d Collins asked. \u201cNah, neither do I.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cY\u2019all, It\u2019s a road sign from Uzbekistan, which is exactly why I\u2019m able to drive a truck in Georgia, but not Uzbekistan,\u201d he continued. \u201cBut somehow, y\u2019all, that common sense, well, it didn\u2019t apply to one man on our roads.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins then replaced a photo of the sign with a mug shot of an undocumented trucker named Akhror Bozorov. Collins said he had been \u201cwanted in Uzbekistan for terrorism and spreading Jihad.\u201d After Bozorov was arrested last year, the Department of Homeland Security published a press release that criticized Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro\u2019s transportation department for issuing a license to Bozorov and President Joe Biden\u2019s administration for granting the trucker his work authorization.<\/p>\n

Collins went one step further and used the trucker\u2019s story to attack the politician he\u2019s trying to unseat, U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., for not being tough enough on immigration.<\/p>\n

He also cited Bozorov\u2019s story as justification to strip noncitizen truckers of their licenses \u2014 but failed to present evidence that noncitizen truckers make the roads less safe.<\/p>\n

In March, the Trump administration enacted its rule that could eventually revoke commercial licenses from nearly 200,000 noncitizen drivers. But according to the administration\u2019s initial analysis of its own rule last year, \u201cThere is not sufficient evidence, derived from well-designed, rigorous, quantitative analyses, to reliably demonstrate a measurable empirical relationship\u201d between a trucker\u2019s citizenship status and safety outcomes.<\/p>\n

A letter from nearly 20 Democratic state attorneys general pointed out that the Trump administration cited only five fatal crashes last year that were caused by noncitizens with commercial driver\u2019s licenses, out of more than 4,000 deaths involving CDL drivers nationwide. The letter said that the Trump administration\u2019s rule presented \u201cno facts\u201d to support the claim that revoking thousands of licenses would \u201cbenefit public safety.\u201d<\/p>\n

Public interest lawyers have also to the rule. The challenge is pending.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe notion that immigrant drivers are less safe than other drivers is not supported by the facts,\u201d said Wendy Liu, one of the lawyers who filed the challenge.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The same week that Trump\u2019s rule was enacted, Collins doubled down on his calls to restrict commercial licenses for noncitizens, writing in an Instagram post that \u201cthis isn\u2019t some game. Lives are at stake. Deport these thugs now.\u201d<\/p>\n
