By wandering from source to source it's possible to find a "middle", by exploiting trifling differences between sources. But the state laws and the courts have held that there is no practical distinction between driving a vehicle and operating it. In some places one or the other nomenclature is preferred; Texas, for instance, insists on calling its DL an "operator's permit", but the court decisions using the word "drivers license" have been used as precedent (and vice versa).
