Let's extend the logic to everybody driving all over the place because it suits them.How about a little common sense here?
The object of the whole thing is to prevent people coming into contact with people to whom they may transfer, or from whom they may receive, the Dreaded Lurgy. Driving my car on my own, unless I'm hijacked at traffic lights, or mow down a pedestrian, I don't come into contact with other people. I'm only at risk when I get out of the car.
That then requires more fuel, which requires more use of fuel stations (increasing the risk of virus transmission there), which requires more fuel deliveries which increases the risk to the tanker drivers, which requires... all the way back down the supply chain.
I'm not saying "don't ever", but to suggest that it has no consequences is not the case.
