He means in the opening cinematic at the beginning of the game. If you watch it all you'll see some guys driving warthogs to a group of Marines (controlled by Sgt. Johnson). Also you see some Marines direct some people driving Scorpions.
Fact is, that is cinematic, the AI on Halo isn't good enough to make Marines good drivers. Putting them in the driver seat would be wrong (with the current AI anyway). Marines would make you sit in the side seats while some cowardly Marine blasts away at a single Grunt. You have to drive as marines follow your lead, not the other way round. I like driving because you have control on the situation, the rest just fire off the sides.
Marines in Ghosts suck really bad. They run you over if you get too close, they charge at a Wraith tank, trigger happy and hover quite politely infront of the cannon so the Elite can have a free shot.
