ORIGINAL: Termyn8or The fact is our government has no right to take our rights. T Yes, they do. Although driving is a privilege, not a right. If you rack up DUIs, don't pay your registration or insurance, they'll take your license. Drive with a suspended license and you'll pay with big money and (often) some time in jail. Do you have specific rights in mind? And the difference between "driving" and "traveling" when both involve someone behind the wheel of a car? Driving, as you said thorhappy, is a PRIVLEGE, not a right. And a person needs to have a license to show they are aware of how to exercise that privlege. My friend couldn't come here from Germany and drive a car without her German driver's license. If that were the case, what would be there to stop a 14 year old from getting in a car and saying he isn't "driving" he is "traveling." Personally, I think the guy should have gotten a bunch of tickets. Not having a license, no insurance, improper plates and another one for stupidity. Please, he is going to start his "fee schedule" because he was being detained? He thinks that he has a right to bill the police for pulling him over because he violated the law. Thats right driving is privilege, traveling is a right. Driving, Passengers, Vehicle, is commercial and a privilege Travel, Guests, Automobile is NOT and is a Right Going to jail is a privilege too, you sign your way in LOL I tried telling people the government is a corporation and hence commercial but no one will listen no matter how much proof is put in their faces. You certainly can and people certainly do charge the government for infringing on the rights of the unenfranchised people.
