You can move, but not necessarily in car. Or on a plane. And you can't walk on the highways or near the rail road tracks or in the road. And you will be stopped

You can move, but not necessarily in car. Or on a plane. And you can't walk on the highways or near the rail road tracks or in the road. And you will be stopped if an officer sees you walking alone on a country road. And that's probable cause right there. Don't go wandering in the woods, lots of privately owned property there as well.
I'm sorry, you said something about moving?
- AnimalMuppet 9y agoI don't think they can stop you from moving in a car. They can stop you from driving one, though...
- jklinger410 9y agoYes you can pre-arrange a ride. Hitch-hiking is illegal in some states. You can pay for a taxi, buy a train or plane ticket. The latter provided you are not on any lists and don't mind your things being x-rayed and/or searched. Really paying for rides in a car is the last great bastion of free movement (provided you don't get randomly stopped and searched in a checkpoint of some kind) in the U.S. Although, most of those either won't take you on the highway or are prohibitively expensive to do so. Making inter-city and greater travel difficult. But bonus points if you can pay with cash. I understand, though. There are just so many common sense reasons to restrict free travel. How could one resist?
- ianferrel 9y ago> Hitch-hiking is mostly illegal in most states No it isn't. There are only a few states where it's illegal.
- jklinger410 9y agoYou are correct. While it is outright illegal in 6 states and has many different specifications per state, it is not mostly illegal. I have amended my original comment to reflect this after doing some research.
