Eventually some bright citizens will just put a referendum forward saying driving is a fundamental right.

Eventually?

Driving is a Right - Not a Privilege

I'm in an argument with another FReeper on this same subject on another thread right now, and have been touting the principle for years.

The right to travel is just that. Unfortunately, the courts have used driving as a way to put a foot in the door (or semi) as a way of infringing on the rights of people in the US, not to mention a moneymaking scheme (read: seatbelt laws).
