Vehicle

Vehicles are non-living means for transportation (see Transport). They are most often man-made (cars, locomotives, ships), but also non-man-made means for transportations can be called vehicles, including icebergs and floating tree trunks. Animals, though used as means for transportation, are not called vehicles.
