There are also e-scooters, (motor-)cycles, agricultural heavy machinery, ... , all of which have drivers, but are not cars.
So your shower Venn-diagram doesn't venn correctly...
I was going to post the technically-correct meme, since it is the best kind of correct, but now I'm not sure. In my mid-US dialect of English, we call people on e-scooters, motorcycles, and bicycles "riders." For heavy machinery, it seems context-dependent, but when it's traveling (slowly) on a public road like a vehicle, it really, really irritates people, so that fits.
Well, e-scooters and motorcycles have riders, to be fair, and most agricultural heavy machinery drivers usually have a car too. But there's also a lot of people who hate their own car without being fuckcars people and fuckcars people who like cars, but see the problem with car-centric infrastructure. The diagram doesn't cover a lot of cases
