@Dammit @lynx you're missing my point which is "A right can be subject to a licence."
Not in Alabama, fine, but in some states yes. In which case my point is made.
Ergo, the contention "Driving is not a right since it is subject to a licence." is demonstrably pretty weak.
A stronger point, IMO, is that rights are generally enshrined in legal or cultural corpuses. Such as the US constitution, or the Human Rights Act, or the TFL late running compensation policy, or the Thatcherite Right to Buy legislation, etc...
I am unaware of the location of the "Right to car ownership" policy document.
