What conscious motor processing? My motor functions largely take care of themselves while I daydream when walking or consider where I want to steer while driving.


That's just motor reflexes that don't even enter higher cognitive processing. But daydreaming probably does process at the same rate as normal language, as was explained in the other comment. Try doing algebra in your head while running an obstacle course you've never seen and you'll be much slower at everything.
