Shuttle Driver and Chauffeur

Drive a motor vehicle to transport passengers on a planned or scheduled basis. May collect a fare. Includes nonemergency medical transporters and hearse drivers.

In the next 5-10 years, AI, primarily through autonomous vehicles, will begin to significantly impact shuttle drivers and chauffeurs. Many fixed-route shuttle services and routine chauffeur tasks in predictable environments will likely see increasing automation, reducing the demand for human drivers in these areas. Human roles will likely shift towards overseeing AI systems, managing complex situations, or focusing on premium, personalized services requiring a human touch.
