Here's a closer look:

Long Sits and Bad Ergonomics:

• Drivers are stuck in their seats for long stretches, which can strain their backs, necks, and shoulders. If the seat's not comfy with good lumbar support, it's even worse.

Doing the Same Moves Over & Over:

• Repeating the same motions leads to overuse injuries like bursitis and arthritis. These repetitive actions put stress on muscles, tendons, and joints.

Whole Body Vibrations:

• Driving comes with a lot of vibrations, which can lead to muscle fatigue and chronic degenerative changes.

Other Factors:

• Fatigue: Long and odd hours make drivers tired, affecting their physical and mental health.

• Stress: The pressure to ensure passenger safety adds to physical stress.

• Psychological Stress: Responsibility for passengers' lives makes the job super stressful.

• Sitting for long periods of the day isn't great for physical health.

• Poor Nutrition, Irregular meal times.

• Shift Work and messed up sleep schedules. These factors contribute to fatigue and poor health.
