driver change
A driver change refers to replacing or swapping the individual responsible for operating a vehicle, such as a motor vehicle, race car, or transportation fleet. This process can occur during long trips, races, or shifts to ensure the driver’s safety, maintain performance, or comply with regulations. It typically involves two trained operators: the one currently driving, who safely pulls over or pauses, and the incoming driver who takes over control, often after brief communication or a handover of vehicle information. The goal is to maintain safety, efficiency, and continuous operation.
