Amazingly accurate definition, as even the body of the human character is also classified as a 'vessel' capable of carrying cargo, and it is also 'self propelled'. Therefore, just your physical presence on the highway (with or without an automobile/motor vehicle/motor car etc.) can technically get you a citation for operating a 'vehicle/vessel' without a class-specific license. I have seen it happen.... would-be hitchhikers being cited for being on the highway without being caught in the act of attempting to hitch a ride.
