"The Idaho Supreme Court, however, has held that the right to operate
a motor vehicle on public highways is a matter of constitutional
dimension. In Adams v. City of Pocatello , 91 Idaho 99, 101, 416 P.2d
46, 48 (1966), the Court declared that the right to drive "is a right
or liberty, the enjoyment of which is protected by the guarantees of
the federal and state constitutions. Consequently, the courts of this
state must regard the right to drive a motor vehicle on public
highways as constitutionally protected." - State of Idaho v. Mark
Wilder (2003) - http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/idahostatecases/app/1033/wilder.pdf
They have indeed recognized our Right to operate motor vehivles on
public highways. Yet, they continue on to exercise a police power to
circumvent this Right they must and do acknowledge. I am sure this
isn't the only state which has recognized this Right, yet chosen to
circumvent it with a police power.

No, it is a Right that is endowed by our creation.
"Undoubtedly the right of locomotion, the right to remove from one
place to another according to inclination, is an attribute of personal
liberty, and the right, ordinarily, of free transit from or through
the territory of any state is a right secured by the 14th Amendment
and by other provisions of the Constitution." - Williams v. Fears, 179
U.S. 270 (1900) - http://laws.findlaw.com/us/179/270.html#274
"The streets belong to the public and are primarily for the use of the
public in the ordinary way." -- Packard v. Banton, 264 U.S. 140 (1924)

I'm not going to employ the use of an Ad Hominem and suggest you need
to brush up on your understanding of Rights. I'll just leave it
saying that Rights are not a Gift of the state, but instead a Gift of
creation.

Now you venture beyond Ad Hominems into the realm of False Witness.
I'm not going to waste any more of my time asking you to put your
money where your accusational mouth is. Clearly, you are only
interested in cheap shots of your ass.

accomplish the showing of your ass.
