And yet, at least in the more spread out areas of the US, it is far more a necessity than voting. Why is it a privilege while voting is not?
And as for differences, the basics of consent is consistent across where ever that consent is being applied. That the harms of violations of consent may differ does not change that.
- rdtsc 11y agoThe punishment for implied consent is they take away the privilege. They don't jail you That's a specific loophole. It turns into a civil court thing and DMV thing not a criminal thing. > Why is it a privilege while voting is not? Oh I agree with you. But we'd have to fix that first. It is a privilege because it is not made into law that travel by car on public roads is a universal human right like other rights in the Constitution. As far as the govt. is concerned citizens have the absolute right to ride their horse on public lands. Just like they did in the 1700s. As soon as anyone steps in a car, airplane, train etc, they lose some right and have to abide by certain rules.
