The interviewer cannot legally ask if you own a vehicle, which can be discriminatory. However, they can ask if you have reliable transportation. If one of the job requirements is to have reliable transportation, that should be listed in the job description.

Reliable transportation can be a personal vehicle, Uber, public transportation, motorcycle, or bicycle. Focus on describing what form of reliable transportation you will use to get to your patient's homes if hired for the position.

"Yes, I have reliable transportation. I bought a new car last year and have never had mechanical issues. I maintain my vehicle and follow the service manual recommendations. If something were to happen to my car, I also have a five-year-old truck that is mechanically sound. If you hire me for the position, transportation will never be an issue."
