blessing of means of transportation (shorter rite)

At the beginning of the celebration, the minister says:

Our help is in the name of the Lord.

All reply:

Who made heaven and earth.

One of those present or the celebrant reads a text of sacred Scripture, for example:

Listen to the words of the holy gospel according to John: 14:6

Jesus said to Thomas: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
