so you think because the government allocates a portion of the tax dollars to road maintenance that you should be completely unrestricted to do anything you damn well please on a PUBLIC roadway?
surely you can't be serious. It's not YOUR road.

Case law tells us what the courts have decided in issues about "right vs. privilege". In the case of Chicago Motor Coach vs. Chicago, 169 NE 22; Ligare vs. Chicago, 28 NE 934; Boon vs. Clark, 214 SSW 607; and in 25 American Jurisprudence (1st) Highways Sect. 163, we find that, "The use of the highways for the purpose of travel and trans-portation is not a mere privilege, but a common and fundamental Right of which the public and the individual cannot be rightfully deprived." So here we have 3 court cases and a quote from one of our basic American law volumes telling us that we have an inalienable right to use the roadways.
