Natural rights. Clearly. The Constitution doesn't grant rights, it limits abrogation of certain rights. The right to travel is long established in common law.

- tadfisher 2y agoThe right to your preferred mode of travel is not.
- AnthonyMouse 2y agoYou're relying on "preferred" to do all the work there. There are plenty of contexts where cars are the only realistic mode of travel and then it isn't a matter of preference because there isn't any viable alternative.
- sokoloff 2y agoIt appears to me that the Court holds that riding in an airplane or car is a right (of travel) but that piloting or driving that airplane/car is a privilege.
- AnthonyMouse 2y agoBut then you come to the context where driving it yourself is viable and hiring a private chauffeur is infeasibly uneconomical and you've got some trouble.
