> Sure it did.

No, it didn't. One because as the FAQ you link notes, owner-operators of trucks are not categorically banned. Second, as your FAQ also obliquely indicates but fails to clearly and directly state, to the extent ant existing business process was banned, it was banned by the California Supreme Court decision in Dynamex applying the ABC test to determine employee vs. contractor status, which is why the lawsuit it refers to against the application of the ABC test was before AB5 was passed, and later amended to include claims challenging AB5, which codified the rule of Dynamex, added exceptions, and made some consistency changes in other law so that relationships that were employment for some purposes under Dynamex would not still be contractor relationships for purposes of other law.
