The next step is to contact the State AG's office and ask for all the opinion letters that the Attorney General's office has issued on the subject. In NY the current opinion letter on who is required to possess a driver's lincense is a letter written in 1909. When I show this to town justices in NY and NJ my charges are dismissed. The prosecutors cannot rebut the gov'ts own opinion. The next thing you do is put together all the case law on the subject of freedom of assembly and the corresponding freedom of travel. Remember you cannot exercise your freedom of assembly if you cannot freely travel to the point of assembly. There is a plethora of case law that says you cannot license a right there is no judge in the country who will contradict this principle. Sounds like BS doesn't it? I guarantee you if you state it and have the state's original traffic statutes and AG opinion letters you will walk. You must prove that you are not part of a class and craft that is required to be licensed because you are operating in commerce. Do the research it's all there. Once you win on this issue you will have more confidence to take on the bigger issues. I guess the fundamental point in all of these rights issues is what was the intent of the legislature who enacted the particular licensing statutes. Remember all licensing of whatever activity is basically an attempt to raise revenue for the use of the legislature.*
