The reference in Am.Jur.1st is to the "right to travel". But this NEVER included the "right" to insist upon being the operator of whatever mode of travel is used. Not one of the cases named in this thread ever upheld a "right" to unlicensed driving; most dealt with things like passports and monopolies granted to certain bus or trucking companies.

Please Shoonra: "Operator", "driving", "motor vehicle", "traffic" are but a few examples of terms of commerce! There are ample cites in the various posts in many of the threads on this site. (I can only guess you're tired of the mental beating you took on the OMB thread, so you're back to spread confusion on the Travel v. Driving subject - zzzzzzzzzzz)
