Driving threads on FR are some of the most entertaining. When the subject of licensed driving comes up, all of a sudden the freedom loving, Founding Fathers-supporting, independent types go scurrying for the protection of the State. This article, at least, shows that the urbanites are their friends, in this.
I was actually thinking that small, expendable transportation and no licensing might be a way to get around the jack-booted thugs. No license to yank, and if it doesn’t happen often enough it might be a good alternative. If this became commonplace enough, it might end licensing your right to get yourself around.
I live in rural kentucky. On the roads here depending on the weather sometimes most of the cars you see are actually side by sides and atvs. I think it’s technically illegal but nobody cares. And in the 11 years I’ve lived here the only time I saw a cop on the road was when they came up to my property when my neighbors 11 or 12 head of cattle broke through the fence and got in my field.
We’re pretty good at self policing in this area and we’re all armed. 😁
