road transport
Highway freight movement
Road transport is the movement of people or goods by vehicles traveling on roads, as opposed to rail, air, or water transport.
It encompasses everything from personal cars and buses to freight trucks and motorcycles.
Road transport dominates short- and medium-distance travel in most countries because of its flexibility and door-to-door convenience.
