As you move faster, in your vehicle, than the world around you, you age slower. This increases life spans.

I've been a trucker for many years. Not the fastest vehicle, but still relatively fast and a lot more hours on the road than the average person. I'm pretty sure that time rather shortened my life than extended it. All the sitting and the fastfood are not good for your general wellbeing. Also the fact that I grew to hate the job, was very detrimental.

Definitely Lifestyle and amount Spent sitting can affect this. Planes, boat and trains probably the best forms
