It hasn't (yet!) become a privilege to move from point to point.  Move
about as you will, but if you're going to use an automobile to do it,
society has determined that there is sufficient potential for harm to
others that it will regulate your use of that automobile on public
roadways.  Driving your own car is hardly the only way to move about.
