By law he must have a Driver CPC - Certificate of Professional Competence, but sitting in a classroom for five seven hour sessions obviously didn't equip him for this. I frequently despair of the industry I work in as this sort of thing is getting more common, but then if all the media reporting is in the nature of 'truck drivers are idiots/polluters/homicidal maniacs etc', why would any halfway competent human being want to be a truck driver?
But we can all look forward to driver-less vehicles without stupid drivers, and you know the old saying 'To err is human, to mess it up completely you'll need a computer'.
