That's because Tom is not talking about what you can do to that vehicles
in 
any particular rules set.

He's talking about what would happen if a *real* vehicle looking like
your 
ARV came up against *real* infantry armed with *real* rifles. In the
real 
world, unprotected crew members (eg. tank commanders sticking their
heads 
out a hatch) are quite easily killed or incapacitated by rifle fire.
Most 
games do not reflect this fact.
