About time.

If the Founding Fathers had ever imagined a day when government would require licensing of vehicle and driver, they would have included a “right of vehicular travel” in the Bill Of Rights. Methinks the only reason it’s not there is it was inconceivable to them.

Here in GA, licensing a car is little more than it runs well enough to put plates on it (and does not excessively pollute for those in metro Atlanta), and licensing a driver is little more than once-demonstrated ability to parallel park. Such rules are so vapid as to warrant their elimination.

Precisely. To allow the government to change a once-considered “right” into a “privilege,” we systematically permit the government to revoke said privilege whenever it deems necessary.

That may be OK to some statists, but not myself. I understand this legislation will go nowhere. But I support his cause.
