[Star Wars] Why would anyone use ground vehicles to transport important goods?

The Pyke Syndicate uses a rocket powered train to transport spice while the empire uses a regular train to transport coaxium. Remnants of the empire are also shown to use armored vehicles to transport highly volatile resources through areas filled with raiders.

Why are ground vehicles used to transport expensive or volatile objects? Would transporting them by spaceship be wayyy safer and also so much quicker?

For the same reason that banks do not transfer money and gold via C-130 with a blue angels escort.

The spice arrives via space, but it still has to be transported around the planet. It is way way way more expensive to hire a ship and fighters to protect it and makes its a very obvious target.

Spice is valuable, but not That valuable.
