The article deals with the most significant aspects of developing human resourcing at transport enterprises. The transportation industry is one of the most important both from the point of view of the national economy and the life support of an individual. The success of the transportation industry depends largely on human resources. Currently, there are two models of staff training for the transportation industry around the world: in narrowly focused specialized educational organizations or in classical universities at specialized transport faculties, departments and schools. Both models are subject to the same influence of external factors. Structural transformation of the global economy, as well as processes of sustainable development and digitalization play a special role. The article attempts to reflect the impact of a number of factors on the staffing of the transportation industry, as well as to consider ways to reduce their negative impact.

“…This has in part been achieved through automobile interests having successfully appropriated ownership of "the problem." They own it in the sense that they have been able to define the problem, which problem has been constructed as the human driver (Bucsuházy et al, 2020;Rolison et al, 2018;Zhang et al, 2018). It is a problem jointly owned with road safety researchers, co-owners of the problem in the sense identified by Joseph Gusfield (1989) as it is road safety researchers and automobile manufacturers that are typically consulted when road safety issues become a topic in the current news cycle.…”

Futuramas of the present: the “driver problem” in the autonomous vehicle sociotechnical imaginary

The visions surrounding “self-driving” or “autonomous” vehicles are an exemplary instance of a sociotechnical imaginary: visions of a future technology that has yet to be developed or is in the process of development. One of the central justifications for the development of autonomous vehicles is the claim that they will reduce automobility related death and injury. Central to this narrative is the assumption that more than 90% of road crashes are the result of “driver error.” This paper describes the process by which this statistic has been constructed within road safety research and subsequently accepted as a received fact. It is one of the principal semiotic components of the autonomous vehicle sociotechnical imaginary: if human drivers are responsible for ~90% of road crashes, autonomous vehicles should in principle be able to reduce road death and injury rates by a similar percentage. In this paper, it is argued that death and injury are not an aggregate of events that can be distributed across the three central variables of traditional road safety research: the driver, the vehicle, and the environment. The autonomous vehicle sociotechnical imaginary has embraced the central assumption of road safety research, that road violence is not an intrinsic property of automobility but is contingent because largely due to driver error. On the basis of this assumption it has been possible to configure autonomous vehicles as the solution to road violence. Although sociotechnical imaginaries are typically oriented towards the future, it is the significance of the autonomous vehicle sociotechnical imaginary in the present that is the focus of this paper. Autonomous vehicles are not the radically transformational technology their proponents claim but simply the most recent of a succession of automobility sociotechnical imaginaries. They are not transformational because their promotion ensures the continued reproduction of more of the same: namely, more automobility.

“…Such identifiers include but not limited to, traffic congestion, human factors and behaviors, road types and sections, vehicle conditions and motorization, policing, weather, etc. (Zheng et al, 2020;Hordofa et al, 2018;Bucsuházy et al, 2020;Sun et al, 2019;Mohammed et al, 2019). In this section, we explore some of the prevailing situations thought to fuel RTAs in the country and some remedial actions and policies taken by the relevant stakeholders.…”
