If you try driving a truck at walking speed for a day, you end up using a lot more fuel than driving it at a reasonable speed plus there's a decent chance of engine failure over a few days.

Better to scout ahead and do some basic assumptions: if your convoy is large enough and moves fast enough, chances are that you'll outrun most bandits because they dont have a fast enough response time to take a shot at you.
