When it comes to autonomous vehicles the best thing I’ve heard anyone say is this- if you’re a lorry driver in your 40’s or older you’ll almost certainly have a full career. But someone starting out at 18? Unlikely. I agree.
Totally agree.
Autonomous vehicles are coming. This is something you should consider if you are under 40.
All HGV work will never be fully autonomous though.
But trunking work a lot of supermarket work will be made autonomous. Which will cut down the number of available jobs in the industry.
Before any of this happens though it will be fully autonomous with the requirement of a driver at the wheel. So it will not be a sudden thing.
