RE: Isolated Gas Shortages In U.S. Thanks to Truck Driver Shortages

in #jobs3 years ago

Numerous truck driving schools also shut down during the pandemic as well, this meant it would take longer for people to become qualified to do the job.

I wonder how many people have chosen to not train to be be semi drivers after seeing stories about self-driving vehicles being the future of driving. Why train for a career that might not exist in a few years?

I would be interested in a self-driving truck. There would be a requirement for a human driver to oversee the operation and take over as needed. Easiest job ever. It actually has me thinking of driving after I start drawing pension.

it is some good fear porn that's for sure, but no tomorrow I doubt that robots will be the only ones driving trucks on the roads. I think the work conditions have more to do with it as not many people today want to be on the road for long periods of time like that
