Abstract

While driving a motor vehicle, every professional driver has a great sense of responsibility for the lives of passengers entrusted to him. Every bus or truck driver feels more or less responsible for arriving on time. Although his being late may be due to other persons or to a whole range of circumstances, the drivers consider it as a personal failure. They also feel responsible for the value of the goods they are transporting, especially when they are perishable (fruits, vegetables and other food).
