Just wondering, when I get my driveway paved I have to stay off it for
a few days. *When they pave the road I can drive on it as soon as the
roller gets out of the way. Why?

For starters the road crew uses heavier stuff and a much heavier roller..

Also much thicker both for the base coat and the top layer.

You could drive on yours once it cools.

BUT there is a major difference between driving and all the short wheel
turns that most of us do in a driveway. That is what tears up new asphalt..

Also parking can create divots.
