Q: Is term "vehicle" considered under law as being operated for commercial purposes?
If Im traveling my privately owned automobile for personal reasons, and not a vehicle for commercial use, do the codes and statues not apply to me?
A: A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to consult with a Georgia attorney for definitive guidance per applicable vehicle & traffic laws or insurance laws, as a general matter, "vehicle" usually means a mechanically or electrically powered car, truck or motorcycle, or other transportation device. Nationwide, most statutes apply the term even if the vehicle is not used for commercial purposes. Good luck
