But some essential vehicles are owned to drive off public roads only (farm trucks for example), not much stopping a farmer from just taking theirs and driving to the bar in the closest village... Or their tractor or ATV...
Yes, I wondered how to express that. I settled on "registered". Where I live, the vast majority of on farm vehicles that can be are formally registered for use on public roads and streets and must display appropriate plates or permits. The vast majority of the rest are some combination of expensive to operate, slow moving, or not permitted to park in town.
As with all edge cases, some are worth dealing with and others can just be left as cracks in the system, at least until we see how things play out.
