Not quite, but almost.

The Vatican issued 10 commandments for drivers.

"The document is intended for bishops conferences around the world, and
as such offered recommendations for their pastoral workers, including
setting up chapels along motorways and having “periodic celebration of
liturgies at major road hubs, motorway restaurants and lorry parks.

The “Drivers’ Ten Commandments,” as listed by the document, are:

1. You shall not kill.

2. The road shall be for you a means of communion between people and not
of mortal harm.

3. Courtesy, uprightness and prudence will help you deal with unforeseen
events.

4. Be charitable and help your neighbor in need, especially victims of
accidents.

5. Cars shall not be for you an expression of power and domination, and
an occasion of sin.

6. Charitably convince the young and not so young not to drive when they
are not in a fitting condition to do so.

7. Support the families of accident victims.

8. Bring guilty motorists and their victims together, at the appropriate
time, so that they can undergo the liberating experience of forgiveness.

9. On the road, protect the more vulnerable party.

10. Feel responsible toward others."
