>>but has any government yet started planning for the relatively near-instant transformation of the Trucker and Taxi industry

Let me put it this way.... How often do any governments have a plan for changes *beforehand?."

Almost every western country saw "deindustrialization" at some point, predictably cutting off whole cohorts from wages, pensions and lifestyles. None had a plan.

They watched Walmart behead high streets and then watched Amazon behead the survivors. No plan. War is, arguably, the thing we plan and provision for the most. Wartime refugees always seem to take us by surprise.

I'm sure someone somewhere, in theory, had a plan for a pandemic. But when it happened, a whole lot seemed to be off the cuff.

Stuff happens, then we plan and react. At best.
