Probably read in the late 70-early 80. I was reading every SF book my local library had at the time and don't remember much else about it. I know that the clans thought they were kinda outlaws but actually the government wanted them to stay on the roads because there was no room for them.
Clans live in vehicles-Never stop Moving-Government drops concrete and builds new road on top of them at end.

Were they surface roads or underground ones?
Surface Roads. At the end of the book they are stalled and the government brings in helicopters to drop concrete and basically pave over the stalled cars, people and all.

Was it Rolltown by Mack Reynolds?
I found a copy of Rolltown online and it is not the book I remember. Thanks

Its not the right answer, but this reminds me a lot of Inverted World by Christopher Priest. Except they were on rails.
