Speaking of the driver, your company secrets are safe in the passenger compartment thanks to a partition between the front and rear of the vehicle that features sound insulation.
Company secrets? Pfffft. We just don’t want the driver to spoil the latest season of—oh yeah, right. We can’t have any company secrets getting out on the way to the airport now, can we?
