    I could understand it if they are a passenger in the vehicle, but I don’t understand how they can believe that operating a car doesn’t count as driving.

      I don’t want to give credence to their bullshit but they believe that “driving” is only done commercially. So if you’re operating a motor vehicle for personal errands and such you are simply a “traveler”, but if you are operating the vehicle to deliver goods or services then you are a “driver”.

        I’ve seen an explanation of this, basically they’re misreading a piece of legislation that relates to commercial drivers.
