Why this score

Driver sales workers face automation pressure on two fronts: the driving itself and the order-management and invoicing tasks that fill the gaps between stops. Route optimization, load sequencing, and payment processing are already being handled by software that reduces the need for human judgment on the logistics side. The relationship-selling and in-person merchandising you do at each stop remain harder to automate, but as autonomous and semi-autonomous delivery vehicles move through regulatory approval, the question becomes whether the sales component alone justifies keeping a human behind the wheel.
