Chapter Nine

Wayward Traveler

In a perfect world, free citizens have a right to travel on the roadways which are provided by their servants for that purpose, using ordinary transportation of the day. In a world with lawful government, licensing cannot be required of free people when taking on the restrictions of a license or permit results in the surrendering of a right.

Realistically, however, we live in a world that is neither perfect nor lawful. Even traveling, a fundamental freedom, is wrought with folly and corruption. Allow me to introduce you to a little thing we call the “driver’s license”.

While traveling the public roadways for private, personal purposes, you cannot be required to adhere to any law, regulation, statute, code or ordinance that places a restriction upon the free exercise of the right to travel (liberty).

Such restrictions are unlawful, including a driver’s license, vehicle registration, mandatory vehicle insurance, vehicle inspections and any other type of license, permit or process, where non-compliance abrogates freedom and liberty by converting an “un-a-lien-able” right into a revocable privilege.

The driver’s license can only be required of people who use the highways for trade, commerce, or hire. Predictably however, with today’s unlawful government, at every level, the law is of little or no consequence.

“The use of the highways for the purpose of travel and transportation is not a mere privilege, but a common and fundamental right of which the public and the individual cannot be rightfully deprived.” (Chicago Motor Coach vs. Chicago, 169 NE 22; Ligare vs. Chicago, 28 NE 934; Boon vs. Clark, 214 SSW 607; 25 Am. Jur. (1st) Highways Sect.163)

“Based upon the fundamental grounds that the sovereign States have the plenary control of the streets and highways in the exercise of its police power, they may absolutely prohibit the use of the streets as a place for the prosecution of a private business for gain. They all recognize the fundamental distinction between the ordinary right of the citizen to use the streets in the usual way and the use of the streets as a place of business or a main instrumentality of business for private gain.

The former is a common right; the latter is an extraordinary use. As to the former, the legislative power is confined to regulation. As to the latter, it is plenary and extends even to absolute prohibition. Since the use of the streets by a common carrier in the prosecution of its business as such is not a right but a mere license of privilege.” (Hadfield vs. Lundin, 98 Wash 657l, 168, p.516)

“For while a citizen has the right to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, that right does not extend to the use of the highways, either in whole or in part, as a place for private gain. For the latter purpose, no person has a vested right to use the highways of the State, but is a privilege or a license which the legislature may grant or withhold at its discretion.” (State vs. Johnson, 243 P.
