Do vehicles spawn when you're driving?

Hi,

as you might know zombies and loot doesn't spawn right now if you're driving around. It also doesn't spawn in your surroundings if you get out, you actually need to approach things on foot.

Now I'm wondering if this would be the same for cars, because I mainly found them in big towns where other player might have spawned them (by walking near them on foot), but not in the supposed spawn locations far up in the north, and I looked nearly everywhere (shortly after a server restart). Also Helicopters are currently not spawning on new servers right?

Vehicles spawn on server start, so they will be there whether you drive or not. That being said, bicycles which are the exception to this do in fact spawn while driving. Evidence:

So are the spawn locations in the wiki not up to date anymore? Because I found none of the vehicles on them but mostly at gas stations or factories/docks and one at the appartments in cherno.
