Looking for some advice.
I have recently passed my psychometrics and just waiting for confirmation of either being given a start date or being put in the holding pool to train as a driver for tyne and wear metro service.
My question is- What is the general opinion on how far away this type service is from being driver-less? or Light rail in the UK in general?
Im in a very stable career with prospects at the moment, its not quite driver money but its getting there. Becoming a driver is a dream for me but also a risk. i dont want to find in 10 years time computer automation being retro fitted into all stock and im out of a job! - iv got 35 years before i can retire!
Any advice would be appreciated or links to some relevant articles.
Thanks
