It should be: "by means of vehicular transportation." But why not just say "in a vehicle"?

English speakers are usually more specific than "vehicle", in that we more often name the type of vehicle.
"I came by bus."
"I came here on the bus."
"I took a bus here."
"I drove here."
"I drove my car."
"I came in my own car."
"I rode in Josh's car."
"I came with Josh in his car."
Unless I'm not understanding the context, it would be very odd to say that you took some sort of terrestrial transport without saying exactly what it was.
