Abstract

Anyone watching news coverage from the UK recently could be forgiven for thinking that the heavy goods vehicle (HGV) driver shortage in the UK is a direct result of the pandemic and the dreaded Brexit. But the HVG driver shortage is by no means a new issue or indeed a problem confined solely to the UK. The HGV driver shortage is, in fact, a global problem that has been ignored and allowed to fester for years.
