    No they drive and that removes their pedestrian status in traffic. It is very impractical to log all accidents as “technically a pedestrian” because they had the ability to walk. The same rules apply to a tank. When it is knocked off with a drone, we don’t say “oh wow a 6 pedestrian and one tractorgun kill by a toy helicopter” because once we have a term for something it means what it means and that is useful to us
