What is an auto driver?

Auto drivers are individuals who operate auto rickshaws, a type of three-wheeled vehicle commonly used for public transportation in many countries, especially in South Asia. They transport passengers from one location to another, usually within cities or towns, and charge fares based on distance traveled or a fixed rate. Auto drivers are responsible for safely navigating traffic, maintaining their vehicles, and providing courteous service to passengers. Many auto drivers work independently, while others may be affiliated with companies or transport unions.
