A driver is a person who operates a vehicle, such as a car, truck, or bus, to transport people or goods. Drivers may work for a private company, a government agency, or be self-employed.

The duties of a driver can vary depending on the type of driving they do, but some common tasks may include:

Operating vehicles to transport passengers or goods

The qualifications required for a driver position can vary depending on the type of driving and the employer, but most require a valid driver’s license and a clean driving record. Some employers may also require a commercial driver’s license (CDL) for specific types of vehicles or goods being transported.

If you are interested in a career as a driver, it is important to have strong driving skills, the ability to follow traffic laws and regulations, and good decision-making skills. Good communication and interpersonal skills are also important, as drivers may interact with passengers or other drivers on a regular basis. Additionally, drivers should have a strong commitment to safety, as they are responsible for transporting people and goods safely.
