Right to travel. Sure go ahead. By foot, bicycle, unicycle, pogo stick, etc. Not by vehicle.
Since when did a vehicle limit the right to travel??
Or, in other words, when was it written into law that you have limited rights when you are driving a vehicle verse riding a horse
@@karlholladay2640Right to travel is just the right to travel from state to state. The Supreme Court has upheld the right of the Federal government to demand a pilot's license for people who are in command of a plane. The Supreme Court has also upheld the State's right to demand a driver's license for anyone operating a motor vehicle.
@@karlholladay2640 you can't be serious
@@larryc7209 why would I not be?
Why not??
You aren’t allowed to benefit from society (public roads) while refusing to get a license or registration.
@chaleechan7805lmao what the fuck is your dumbass talking about?
I can't believe people still fall for this right to travel no license needed bulshit
"We need to self govern is what we need to do."
A total lack of understanding that in fact, in the American Republic, this is exactly what we all do.
Is it really how the system works? Because I don’t feel represented by my government. They consistently do things I consider overzealous and outright treasonous. I vote. I participate in local government. I just don’t feel like our country is what the founding fathers of our society intended. I’m not making the argument you shouldn’t have to pass an inspection (registration/license) or that you have the right to operate a motor vehicle on a public roadway You obviously need a license and registration for the vehicle. Insurance too. I just found your comment a bit out of touch. I genuinely am curious if you feel represented by your government?
Well actually Some Americans run the government for you. You just believe your vote matters.
You seem pleasant folk. Some people seem to confuse the right to travel - the right to move freely through the country - with operating motor vehicles on public roads. Motor vehicles are capable of causing great harm to others, physically and financially. Society decided, before we were born, to impose regulations and restrictions on operating motor vehicles because of that, and we have to choose between accepting them and complying with the rules, or rejecting them. Some regulations are poorly thought out, and it would be better if they were changed, but the general principle is something that many people can understand and will comply with.
I don't mean to nitpick about small stuff but this sort of stood out to me, as kind of an example of how well-meaning people can be a little shortsighted when it comes to their own convenience vs the needs of other people. At 6:13 you scoff at the idea of a cop pulling you over in the rain for having your wipers on, but not your lights, with the justification that it was daylight outside. "and I'm like...ok? Really?"
The reason for these laws (in certain states and municipalities; they're not uniform but should be) is because in reduced visibility conditions such as rain, people have a hard time seeing YOU. You drive a dark, unlit vehicle in the rain on dark, wet pavement, and you become a hazard to other motorists. We know it's light out, we know you can see the road ahead of you, that's not the point. Your headlights aren't just for you, they're for other motorists.
It's this mildly entitled mentality that contributes to people jumping to negative conclusions about folks like you, and again, you do seem like perfectly decent people. This is just my personal reflection.
We appreciate your comment. We do not think we are entitled though. As for the wipers situation we are aware and agree with what you stated. It was not a heavy rain though, this was a drizzle we were talking about. Everything was visible to everyone. Also, we were not complaining in anyway about being pulled over because of it.
They are not well meaning. they are mentally ill and were easily scammed on the internet due to a lack of education.
@@highlandhomestead2494 Highly subjective and presumptive to assume what someone else can see. Wipers on,lights on covers it. Common sense.No more,no less.
@@highlandhomestead2494 Thank you for your kind response, and again, this is in no way meant to be argumentative, I actually enjoy exploring these interpersonal concepts. But I have to say, when did an entitled person ever cop to being entitled? The very idea of being entitled means you would never see yourself as being so. And you absolutely were complaining about being pulled over. And it doesn't matter if it was a drizzle, rain hinders visibility. The fact that you say, and I'm paraphrasing, "We're not entitled, we know the law, we don't disagree, it wasn't a heavy rain it was just drizzle, everything was visible to everyone, and we weren't complaining." Do you kinda see how that comes across?
Like you kind of touched on, there is too much money driving around on the road for people to not have registration and identifying plates. The right to travel is limited to non-motor vehicles, and that’s how it should be. In most states you can buy a 49 cc or smaller scooter with no license or registration so do that. Nobody is allowed to drive a 2 ton vehicle at 70 miles an hour without a license, and I’m OK with that.
Carl i hope i dont go to deep down the rabbit hole here.
I do not have a problem with laws.
But laws here in the usa were not intended to limit the rights of citizens withe the exceptions of wronging others. However laws are supposed to limit government power.
And i have to ask at what point does a state become a police state?
Well when we are driving down the road without braking any laws and yet there is a cop behind you running your plate you have a police state.
Just a step away from saying
"Show me your passport!!"
Yes Gestapo!!
And for those people that think inspection registration and insurance make you safe. Put there trust in faulse securities. Insurance does not cover everything and is greatly changing what it does not cover year to year. And in the end the owner or driver asumes all responsibilities not the insurance company.
If you are the last car to get hit in a three car pile up cause by one driver good luck in collecting anything for medical or for vehicle damage. Because the insurance is already tapped out. You will have to seek for compensation through a civil court.
I have livied in states with inspections and with out inspections. And really can not see the benefit of inspections when there is just as may accidents in both states.
I am sorry to say, that those "good cops" for You do not do their duty. Their duty is to uphold local, and, for you in the US, also federal laws. If local law says that operating a motor vehicle on public roads demands a drivers license, and the vehicle must be insured, registered, and possibly inspected to be safe to operate, any of those lacking must terminate the travel by that vehicle immediately. Here in Europe the trip ends just there. Here in Finland cops are top quality, and they uphold the law. They are kind and polite, but do not allow law breakers to keep breaking the law. In your case, it would have been taxi time from there.
Sure, there is a freedom to travel. One can travel freely , and when operating a motor vehicle on public roads, that freedom of travel still is there if laws concerning motor vehicles are followed.
I am always puzzled how so many are misled about the subject. Every person with IQ more than their car's wheel height must understand that there must be a driver's license to show that a person knows the rules of the road and is capable to operate the vehicle. There must be state registration system to make sure that the vehicle belongs to somebody, and any problems can be traced to that person. There absolutely MUST be insurance, as one can not cover the expenses of a costly accident if, say, someone is badly injured or even killed.
I found this sovereign citicen stupidity somehow strange. There can not be so many low IQ people to keep the hoax running so that there are this much videos about it. It must be a some kind of religion. A bad religion.
I would suggest you rewatch the video as you clearly did not understand what we were saying in it or you would not have stated what you did. It won't do any good attacking peoples IQs that you know nothing about and thinking you know more.
We are not talking about finish laws.
Usa Budd keep your stick on finish ice We check here😂
Right to travel does not mean the right to freely operate a motor vehicle without license, registration or insurance. Right to travel means your right to walk, ride a bike, even be a passenger in a legal vehicle like a car, bus or even airplane. Unless instructed by a legal authority like a judge, you are free to travel, but if you want to drive, make sure you are doing so acording to the law.
Sound like a police state Gestapo
@@karlholladay2640how do you to such a summary? There are some Countries with barrly existing government, why not moving there?
@muten861 This is my home, plain and simple
@@karlholladay2640 you want to make your home to 3rd world country, w/o government?
@muten861 No, I believe in a government that up holes the right of individuals. Up until the 1940s, we were a 3rd world country.
Now we are a country of spoiled brats with faults securities
Congratulations to master your law degree at the famous CZcams university🎉
We never claimed any of that. But thank you for your comment.
@@highlandhomestead2494 but somehow you feel entitled to have completely different interpretation of the law than the main body of law school.
Isn't everybody entitled to their own opinion? Especially everyone as a whole of humanity. If we didn't have all these rules and regulations that we made up, then we would all be living in nature naturally roaming free.
@@highlandhomestead2494 you can make up your own laws, but they are worthless, if they are not generally accepted. And your "back to the nature"- dreamare basically other words for the facts, that you will profit from the community (by using roads, mobile phones, TV, being protected from any crime against you) but you dont want to return anything to the community (avoiding taxes, not paying anything for health care and social security, avoiding car insurance, avoiding rules that you dont agree).
The dream of natural law is a very childish idea: once you really live a life in the nature, w/o todays comfort, you would want for sure go back within a few days.
@@highlandhomestead2494 have all the opinions you want, but right now a license to drive a motor vehicle is required in all 50 states
Are the people in this video the same type of “sovereign citizens” I see in cop videos that are delusional to actual laws? I don’t really know what they are trying to tell us.
We are not the kind of people that are seen in the right to travel cop videos that are delusional.
@@highlandhomestead2494 Good to know!
@Jive33 those videos are why this one got recommended lol
I like how this starts off like a "right to travel" could mean an individual gets to do what they want but takes the sensible turn that the rules that police enforce are for the communities we've made as people. Respect!
The right to travel does exist and has been upheld by the supreme courts rulings. The matter at issue was specifically if the federal government or state government can place restrictions or requirements on crossing between different governments territory within The United States or bar leaving the United States. This is in contrast with many other unions/federations of states in the world which require a permit, identification, or registration to pass between member states borders. In the United States any citizen/resident not under court order or fleeing legal actions may freely cross from one state to the other. This does NOT mean that the state cannot place restrictions on operating vehicles or certain things in your possession…they just cannot bar the individual. In this case your vehicle must abide by that states rules to operate on its roadways.
Now outside of controlled access federally funded interstates and highways you are free to traverse roadways on foot, bicycle, horse as long as you’re not impeding other use of the roadway or causing other damage/harm.
some people say that they are not operating a motor vehicle they are traveling in their personal conveyance under federal code. The federal code does define a motor vehicle as a vehicle operated for commercial use. It’s in 18 U.S. Code § 31. It’s the 6th definition. And thus they argue under non-business circumstances that their vehicles are not motor vehicles.
However one important distinction many people not familiar with US federal code is the scope of that definition. It is limited to Title 18 (federal crimes) of federal law. States and different titles in the law are free to define terms differently as long as they are called out in those codes.
So unless you are operating a motor vehicle in a federal jurisdiction which is not also in a state jurisdiction, administrative zone, or territory it’s hard to have that definition apply (technically there are some areas, like inside a federal courthouse or embassy; but those are pretty special circumstances.
It is important to note that in federal law there is also definitions under the Federal Aid Road Act of 1916, and then again in the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1921. And in 1970 the National Highway Safety Administration was established in 23 USC appointing the rules of safety and operation on Highways and Interstates under their control.
In addition the 10th Amendment places any rights not reserved under federal law to State law. Which allows states to both redefine and add additional restrictions within their territories.
Now some people dispute the territory of states, jurisdictions of states, and claim US federal law and State law are businesses and not governments. But seriously unless you successfully manage a coup, that’s pseudo-law. And there are some that claim a overwhelming majority of people are living in a conspiracy under a fake system of government; but if the overwhelming majority are fine with those rules and they produce a mostly functioning and mostly peaceful society…is it really fake, or it it the reality that society has chosen to live under.
18 U.S. Code § 31 is even more limited than that. It is meant for use with Chapter 2 of Title 18, which covers federal crimes committed against aircraft, motor vehicles, and their related facilities engaged in interstate transportation.
There are also other definitions found in other sections of the US Code that closely resemble those definitions found in state law but those too are limited to the chapters of the US Code in which they are found.
salut! Lik!what a top footage~🤩
Very sad that people who otherwise appear intelligent and mindful could be so uncaring and stupid as to endanger other people by not keeping and registering a safe vehicle and getting insurance to cover accidents, or even the cost of damage to their own vehicle. Listen to the two of you disagree over the status of your insurance and having watched a lot of vids on this I know I don't believe your insurance was valid. You may even have committed fraud on your insurance company if you didn't tell them the vehicle was unregistered. If you want to live off grid, how do you even justify a massive gas guzzling truck? Your right to travel includes walking. So walk. Or get the paperwork.
You obviously didn't watch the video or you would know that we stated that we have all the paperwork done and our truck is legal to be on the road. The state we moved from did not require inspections. The ONLY reason our vehicle did not pass inspection the first time where we currently live was because of our windshield which has since been replaced. There was no insurance fraud. And our insurance has been always been valid. There was no arguing over that in the video, what you saw was a mix up of wording.
I'm officially addicted to this content!
Those that use the roads should pay more taxes than those of us who don't . Even though e-bike is my only mode of travel I still benefit from roads via the products and services that can reach me.
CZcams is loaded with police bodycam of Right to Travelers. I enjoy watching them.
