You are correct in that there is nothing in the charter of rights a freedoms that specifically states that travel by roadway as a vehicle passenger is a right, however there is nothing to state that it is not. The charter does however guarantee the right not to be arbitrarily detained. The charter does not state that being detained means being transported to a police station. When the police set up roadblocks, every individual in ever vehicle is arbitrarily detained. Most if not all of these road blocks are set up in such a manner that traps travellers in a line of traffic with no way out. The detainees do not have an option to leave. What is the difference between being held immobile in your vehicle awaiting search and being held without cause at the police station awaiting search. In your opinion would it be ok for the police to set up a check point on a busy city sidewalk to detain and search pedestrians in attempt to catch law breakers? Actually according to your logic, those pedestrians have no right to be on the street. > > >The law is explicit in stating that it is a privlege to hold a drivers > >license but > >can you provide any references that will support your above statement which > >appears to > >be presented as a fact? > > > >BTW YOU can "correct" or maybe change what I believe if you can present a > >logical argument based in fact > >that will "correct" my mind...I mean change my mind. > > > >> > >> > If this were true, it would be a "privlege" for you to transported to a > >> > hospital when the old ticker becomes erratic. > >> > >> If you wish to look at it that way.
