How it's used
Refers specifically to a group of vehicles managed or traveling together for a common purpose. It is commonly used in professional or logistics contexts, such as taxi companies or courier services, rather than just a random group of cars on the road. When referring to a formal procession of official vehicles, people often use the term 車隊 to describe the organized nature of the movement.

Common mistake
Avoid using this word for a casual group of friends driving together, as it implies a level of professional organization or institutional ownership. For a casual group of cars, simply saying 一堆車 is more natural.
