Driver Licensing ensures highway safety

But, the Locomotion Ordinarily used for personal travel on our public highways is Driving the Automobile. We have the Right of Locomotion ordinarily used for personal travel on our public highways. Correct. And the "ordinarily used" way is by properly licensed drivers. You cannot get past this by ignoring its reality. or being a passenger in a vehicle driven by someone else. Being a passenger in a vehicle driven by someone else IS NOT the act of Locomotion. Of course it is. Merrian-Websters defines Locomotion as: "to move from place to place". NOT "to be moved from place to place". That does not contradict his example. Do you think that a person in the passenger seat of a moving car, bus or plane is not moving? How could that be? Williams v. Fears (http://laws.findlaw.com/us/179/270.html#274) defines Locomotion as: "to remove from one place to another according to inclination". NOT "to be removed from one place to another according to another's inclination". When being moved from place to place by someone else, you are being TRANSPORTED, and you are not exercising the power of Locomotion. Those are not mutually exclusive. The person is doing both at the same time. And, you do not have a Right to be Transported from one place to another according to your Inclination. Sure you do. Unless you're on a terrorist watch list, perhaps. |

It does not work that way. You failed to answer my previous challenges: One of the cases you cited in the thread last year where I thoroughly dismantled all your claims was a Boise, Idaho, case that you propped up to claim licensing was unconstitutional, yet *that very case you cited* actually was *on point* about licensing and *upheld it.* That case established that licensing was legal and proper. Yet you ignored that, pulled out a quote you could apply out of context and tried to make it say the opposite. Can you not concede, even now in the face of this, that your tactic was highly improper and in fact insulting to those who tried to make you see the light last year? First they recognize that Driving the Automobile IS A RIGHT: "The Idaho Supreme Court, however, has held that the right to operate a motor vehicle on public highways is a matter of constitutional dimension. In Adams v. City of Pocatello , 91 Idaho 99, 101, 416 P.2d 46, 48 (1966), the Court declared that the right to drive "is a right or liberty, the enjoyment of which is protected by the guarantees of the federal and state constitutions." Consequently, the courts of this state must regard the right to drive a motor vehicle on public highways as constitutionally protected." - STATE OF IDAHO v.

Id. ; Gordon v. State , 108 Idaho 178, 179, 697 P.2d 1192, 1193 (Ct. App. 1985). Therefore, the question before this Court is whether the requirement that one obtain a driver's license before driving upon the highways and, in the process, provide one's social security number, is a reasonable regulation in furtherance of the state's police power." - STATE OF IDAHO v. MARK WILDER - http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/...033/wilder.pdf But, then they go on to provide the very grounds on which to invalidate such police powers: "Under the broad authority of the police power, a state legislature may enact laws concerning the health, safety, and welfare of the people so long as the regulations are not arbitrary or unreasonable." - STATE OF IDAHO v. MARK WILDER - http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/...033/wilder.pdf Which brings us back to the subject of this thread, that being "Driver Licensing is not about highway safety", such that this Police Power is arbitrary and unreasonable. Driver licensing serves no purpose to highway safety that laws against endangerment did not already serve. Driver licensing only presumes to determine if one CAN drive safely. But, virtually everybody over the age of 12 CAN drive safely. Virtually everybody who applies for a driver license eventually obtains one. The question isn't if they CAN drive safely, but rather if they WILL drive safely. The vast majority of highway accidents are due to WILLFUL acts of negligence. Driver licensing CAN NOT determine if someone WILL drive safely. Driver Licensing does not presume to prevent someone from driving, but instead it only presumes to give someone permission to drive. If someone is driving safely, there is no cause to stop them to see if they are driving safely without a drivers license. And, If someone is driving dangerously, there is no need for them to have a driver license in order to prosecute them for endangerment. And, when someone proves they WILL NOT, or even that they CAN NOT, drive safely, Due Process of Law can be used to deny them of their Right to Drive just as easily as it can be used to deny them of their Right of Liberty. And, the courts can just as easily keep a record of one's Endangering exercise of their Right to Drive as they can keep a record of one's Endangering exercise of their Right of Liberty.

I would agree that licensing serves no purpose were there no written or road test. But since there are such tests it indicates that the new driver meets certain levels of proficiency and is at least aware of the basic laws governing driving. Driver Licensing presumes only to determine if one CAN drive safely. But, virtually everybody over the age of 12 CAN drive safely. The question isn't if someone CAN drive safely, but rather if they WILL drive safely. Virtually ALL highway accidents are caused by WILLFUL acts of negligence. Driver Licensing CAN NOT even pretend to presume to determine if one WILL drive safely. Driver Licensing does not presume to prevent someone from driving, but instead it only presumes to give someone permission to drive. If someone is driving safely, there is no cause to stop them to see if they are driving safely without a drivers license.

And, the courts can just as easily keep a record of one's Endangering exercise of their Right to Drive as they can keep a record of one's Endangering exercise of their Right of Liberty. We may have fewer violations, accidents and such if all drivers were required to take a refresher course every so many years when renewing their license. I would dare say that many people who have got years of proven safe driving habits would fail such tests, and that others who have got years of proven unsafe driving habits would pass such tests. Frankly, I do not agree with your "may". |

I fail to see why you object to me using two court cases that also recognize our Right of Locomotion ordinarily used for personal travel on our public highways. I don't object to your use of them; I object to your misuse of them. I don't misuse them... Yes you do. Of course you do. It is prima facie true that you have misused them, as I more than adequately outlined. In fact, in one case, you actually cited dicta from a court case that UPHELD licensing as evidence licensing was NOT legal. This is prima facie proof that you have misused them. Packard - You have consistently misused this case, which doesn't even have the word "license" in it, as evidence that licensing isn't legal. That's *on its face* proof that you have misused this. Sorry. It's like you're standing unprotected in a driving rainstorm and trying to claim you're not all wet. , as even the courts have stated: "Consequently, the courts of this state must regard the right to drive a motor vehicle on public highways as constitutionally protected." - STATE OF IDAHO v. MARK WILDER -http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/idahostatecases/app/1033/wilder.pdf HOLY COW!!!! Did you even READ this cite of yours? Lemme help you, from the very first section: "Judgment of conviction for driving without a license, affirmed." AFFIRMED. That means Wilder's appeal of his conviction for driving without a license - AND his claim in his appeal that licensing was a violation of his constitutional right to drive, as you mistakenly claim - were REJECTED and his conviction STANDS. Man, can you not understand this? Further, from the ruling YOU cited: "Mark Wilder appeals from his judgment of conviction for driving a motor vehicle without a valid license, arguing that the magistrate lacked jurisdiction and that the requirement that Wilder provide his social security number in order to obtain a driver's license violates his constitutional right to travel. We affirm." And even more dismantling and destruction to your position FROM YOUR OWN CITE: "Wilder argued that the denial of a driver's license deprived him of his right to travel, which he characterized as "an inalienable right given by God." The magistrate denied the motion. Wilder thereafter filed a motion to dismiss the charge for lack of jurisdiction, contending that "he is not subject to any Court wherein the Supreme law of the land cannot be argued or applied in his defense." The magistrate implicitly denied this motion by proceeding with a jury trial and, following a guilty verdict, entering a judgment of conviction. Wilder appealed to the district court, which affirmed the conviction." HOLY COW! And yet mo "A state law does not impermissibly infringe on this right unless impeding travel is the law's primary objective, the law actually deters such travel, or the law uses a classification that serves to penalize the exercise of the right." Soto-Lopez, 476 U.S. at 903." You are nothing if not consistently wrong in your cites. They all have supported MY end of this argument. Checkmate! But, as you'll see below, they attempt to weasel out of honoring this Right by claiming a Police Power. Wrong. They use the Constitution. Properly. As courts since Hendrick in 1915 have applied it and without challenge from the people's representatives. Therefore, the purpose of this thread is to demonstrate that this exercise of Police Power is arbitrary or unreasonable, and is therefore invalid. In that, you have failed as you did last year. Courts have considered all your claims, repeatedly over the decades, in challenges from others such as you and they have ALL been rejected. Stare decisis! Again, you cannot cobble together random sentences from the dicta of unrelated court cases, and string them together in a Frankenstein type creation of your own to fashion your own imaginary case law. Yet still, you agree with that supposedly "Frankenstein type creation" that "we have the Right of Locomotion ordinarily used for personal travel on our public highways". And, so do our courts. Yep. And the ordinarily used way is with licensed drivers in registered vehicles. No problemo. It does not work that way. You failed to answer my previous challenges: One of the cases you cited in the thread last year where I thoroughly dismantled all your claims was a Boise, Idaho, case that you propped up to claim licensing was unconstitutional, yet *that very case you cited* actually was *on point* about licensing and *upheld it.* That case established that licensing was legal and proper.

MARK WILDER -http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/idahostatecases/app/1033/wilder.pdf Yes, you have the right to qualify for a license to do all of this. Just like you have the right to apply for a parks permit to reserve a PUBLIC pavilion in a PUBLIC park for your church picnic. Then they weasle out by claiming "police power": There is no weaseling involved at all. It is all perfectly straightforward, fully briefed and litigated and decided. "The state of Idaho may subject this right to reasonable regulation, however, in the exercise of its police power. Id. ; Gordon v. State , 108 Idaho 178, 179, 697 P.2d 1192, 1193 (Ct. App. 1985). Therefore, the question before this Court is whether the requirement that one obtain a driver's license before driving upon the highways and, in the process, provide one's social security number, is a reasonable regulation in furtherance of the state's police power." - STATE OF IDAHO v. MARK WILDER -http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/idahostatecases/app/1033/wilder.pdf Well, there you have it. You lost. But, then they go on to provide the very grounds on which to invalidate such police powers: "Under the broad authority of the police power, a state legislature may enact laws concerning the health, safety, and welfare of the people so long as the regulations are not arbitrary or unreasonable." - STATE OF IDAHO v. MARK WILDER -http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/idahostatecases/app/1033/wilder.pdf Ensuring public safety is not unreasonable. Trying to ensure some minimal level of competency on the part of the people operating three- ton masses of mobile metal on the public rights of way, to protect me from you, is not arbitrary. Which brings us back to the subject of this thread, that being "Driver Licensing is not about highway safety", such that this Police Power is arbitrary and unreasonable. I retitled it so that it is truthful. Driver licensing serves no purpose to highway safety that laws against endangerment did not already serve. False. Society is not required to wait upon the day you run over my child to start ensuring public safety. This all has been argued and litigated ad nauseum because folks like you continue to raise these invalid arguments in courts across the land, and losing. Driver licensing only presumes to determine if one CAN drive safely. Bingo! Thank you for establishing that it is not arbitrary. But, virtually everybody over the age of 12 CAN drive safely. Are you back to advocating that infants, dogs and amoebas be allowed to drive up until the point where they actually have an accident? Virtually everybody who applies for a driver license eventually obtains one. The question isn't if they CAN drive safely, but rather if they WILL drive safely. And that's where the system of licensing, revocation, etc all fit in. They are essential cogs in the wheels of public welfare and safety, I can't charge you with "endangerment" if I don't know who you are. The vast majority of highway accidents are due to WILLFUL acts of negligence. False. We proved you wrong on this last year, and in this very thread I reminded you of your error yet you repeat it. That makes me wonder about your seriousness. You simply MUST deal with your factual errors. The study you cited was NOT of all accidents, as I proved to you 18 months ago. It was ONLY of distracted driving-caused accidents. It was a small subset of the whole. Your continued citing of it shows willful failure to adhere to the known facts. Driver licensing CAN NOT determine if someone WILL drive safely. So what. That isn't the point and certainly not a reason to abolish it. Driver Licensing does not presume to prevent someone from driving, but instead it only presumes to give someone permission to drive. If someone is driving safely, there is no cause to stop them to see if they are driving safely without a drivers license. And, If someone is driving dangerously, there is no need for them to have a driver license in order to prosecute them for endangerment. Yes there is. You might not have stopped them at the scene. Without licensing and registration, you have no clue who that person was who ran over your child and fled. And, when someone proves they WILL NOT, or even that they CAN NOT, drive safely, Due Process of Law can be used to deny them of their Right to Drive just as easily as it can be used to deny them of their Right of Liberty. And, the courts can just as easily keep a record of one's Endangering exercise of their Right to Drive as they can keep a record of one's Endangering exercise of their Right of Liberty. Not if they never knew who it was. And, that is the grounds upon which I claim this Police Power to require Driver Licensing is arbitrary and unreasonable. And those grounds have shifted form under you and your argument has collapsed and failed. Read about it at:http://proffsl.0mb.com/I_am_wrong_about_everything.bs I fixed your link! |

Why, on top of behaving like a child, do you constantly lie? Virtually everybody who applies for a driver license eventually obtains one. The question isn't if they CAN drive safely, but rather if they WILL drive safely. And that's where the system of licensing, revocation, etc all fit in. They are essential cogs in the wheels of public welfare and safety, And, here you pretend as if Due Process of Law was not already in place to revoke any of our Rights once we have demonstrated we will not exercise them without endangering others. I can't charge you with "endangerment" if I don't know who you are. Hog Wash! Even if someone didn't know who they them self were, and neither did anybody else, and they took a baseball bat and began to swing it so near your head as to constitute endangerment, you can still charge their criminal ass with endangerment, and they can be prosecuted for such by Due Process of Law in our courts. The vast majority of highway accidents are due to WILLFUL acts of negligence. False. You are flat out wrong. Go do yourself a Google search on "Primary Cause of Automobile Accidents", and educate yourself.

Driver Licensing not about highway safety
proffsl wrote:
Why do you continue to behave like a child? The same might be sad of you. You repeatedly roll out this nonsense about driver licensing having nothing to do with road safety, ignore all the evidence and logical argument and misinterpret your own cites, and then you just go own arguing the same crap over and over as if it were true. Grow up and get a life. Maybe one day you will pass your driver exam. |
