There is no requirement for truckers to also be motorists and I
suspect that many are not since they spend so much time in their cabs,
or at most they are very infrequent motorists.
Just because Vince has made himself utterly car dependent doesn't

motorists for my food. Long before the car was ever dreamed of food
was transported.
