Hill, as far as I understand it Real0ne is trying to make out even shoes could be vehicles, thereby limiting freedom even more. Early on he says: quote:
ORIGINAL: Real0ne the self propelled part only narrows it down for their purposes of that statute, meaning that even though shoes could be construed as a vehicle in the general definition it is not construed as a motor vehicle in the more specific definition. Then after looking at what a vehicle is: quote:
ORIGINAL: mnottertail I asked for the definition of a device from blacks law, which you claim to own. The 8th edition if I remember correctly. You did not provide it. So, among other things shoes are not self-propelled, nor are they a device. ...R0 unfortunately doesn't address what the legal definition of a device would be but appeals to the more general use of the word: quote:
ORIGINAL: Real0ne oh and a shoe is most certainly a device to protect your feet. LOL However, simple reading of the text shows that shoes could not be considered "devices" in the general context of a "vehicle" given in the definition R0 provides: quote:
340.01.(74) “Vehicle” means every device in, upon, or by which any person or property is or may be transported or drawn upon a highway… nor in "motor vehice" given in the definition he himself also provides: quote:
340.01.(35) “Motor vehicle” means a vehicle, including a combination of 2 or more vehicles or an articulated vehicle, which is self−propelled, except a vehicle operated exclusively on a rail. ...unless of course in R0's weird world shoes transport people rather than their legs or are somehow responsible for people being drawn across a given highway, and somehow are "self-propelled" devices.
