There are literally hundreds of Court decisions in the 1800s that declared (many citing the 5th Amendment) all person have a right to use public roads. The 1st Edition of "Amercian Jurisprudence, cited above, acknowledged such a right and included the term "automobile." So in your declaration of driving as a priveledge, you have accepted the government assertion of control over you and accepted that the government has granted you this priveledge when in fact it was a "Right" removed from Americans by the Government.
See how these things get started. People don't research, inquire or know history.
