Truckers in India Are Quitting Their Professions

There's been a decline in the number of heavy goods drivers from 300 thousand just a couple of years ago to about 70 thousand right now. The average age of truckers in britain is 55 and young people aren't exactly jumping for joy at the prospect of becoming a trucker either. Some have left the country due to brexit, others left the country during the pandemic as travel and vizar restrictions made life rather difficult. New truckers, meanwhile, had trouble signing up because test centres were closed. Most drivers do not own their vehicles. They often suffer from driver fatigue due to long working hours. On average, each driver drives for about 11 point nine hours in a day
