Ummmm, maybe you and the others here should do a little research about the law, and you will find that even the US Supreme Court has held that a drivers license is not required for a citizen to drive a vehicle upon the public roads. And, therefore, any "seizure" of a person's vehicle for not having a valid DL would be completely illegal.

After saying that, I fully understand that making a choice of not having a DL may entail some necessarily messy encounters with the Jackboots and property seizures have been unconsitutionally upheld by the courts. That still doesn't alter the fact that no citizen is required to have a state DL to operate a personal conveyance - bicycle, tractor, roller skates, truck or car - on the public roadways, except for commercial purposes. Democrap or Republican alike.

I know, there will be many squealing sheepies here that will claim this ain't so. But just like the fact that no one is required to have a Social Insecurity #, or "traveling papers" or such, no one is required to have a drivers lic. The problem I see is that the little guy will get his a$$ thrown in jail for not having a Lic. The Big Guys [IOW, politician and those with money and pull], Democraps and Republicraps alike, get off with "I'm sorry, I just didn't have time".

I'd have to go spend some time looking up the Supreme's ruling on this, but it had something to do with that pesky Constitution again. Those misguided Founding Fathers seemed to have this crazy idea that no citizen should be kept from traveling where, when or however he wanted to by the goobermint. You know, that typical Anarchist, ancient claptrap that so interfers with, and has little relevance to, today's modern world and the socialists/nazis' desires to control everything we do- all for our own good, mind you. Or "for the children".
