You must distinguish between private and commercial transportation. People using the road to make money ARE operating within a PRIVILEGED capacity.
Okay, so you drive down the highway in your vehicle, and you have a right to do so.
Toss some flats of strawberries in the back seat to sell at the swap meet, and all of a sudden, you’re operating under a privilege? Say what?
You drive a big rig and you’re only doing so by the grace of the state?
Oh hell no! You may have to comply with laws, but then we all do. That still doesn’t make it a privilege. People have every right to utilize our highways for commerce. They don’t need permission to do so, any more than you and I do to get to grandma’s.
