drug runners
Illegal substance transporters
Drug runners are people who transport illegal drugs, typically across borders or between suppliers and dealers.
The term emphasizes the delivery role rather than production or sale—runners move the product through dangerous territory: The coast guard intercepted drug runners in a speedboat.
Also called drug mules, though mule often implies someone carrying drugs on or inside their body.
