Human trafficking doesn’t look the way most people expect—and that misunderstanding allows it to continue hiding in plain sight.
In this episode of the Ground Transportation Podcast, James Blain is joined by Lexi Higgins, Director of Industry Engagement at Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT), to break down the realities of human trafficking and the critical role transportation professionals play in stopping it.
From bus stations to motorcoaches to chauffeured transportation, drivers and frontline staff are often the first to see the warning signs—whether during recruitment, active exploitation, or when a victim is trying to escape. This conversation challenges common myths, explains what trafficking actually looks like, and shows why reporting suspected activity is not only safe—but essential.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why human trafficking is rarely “stranger danger”
• The most common myths that prevent people from speaking up
• Key behavioral indicators of trafficking and coercion
• What actually happens after you make a report
• How one phone call can lead to rescues—even years later
• Why transportation professionals are uniquely positioned to help
This episode is part of Human Trafficking Prevention Month, but the responsibility doesn’t end there. Education saves lives—and awareness turns everyday professionals into powerful advocates.
