Driving a vehicle falls well within the regulatory bounds of commerce

No, it does not. Not any more than walking does. Commercial driving today requires commercial licenses and that might be acceptable... But pleasure driving — taking kids to see grandma? No way...

Unfortunately, Chief Justice Marshall disagreed with you. Traffic falls under commerce just as much as trade. Take it up with SCOTUS if you have an issue.

Since you don't have anything to support your claims, and SCOTUS ruled that traffic is regulate-able commerce over 200 years ago, there's nothing left to rebut here.

No, certainly not. The 10th amendment deals with that. But to protect something so vehemently, you usually need a bigger piece of collateral than the 10th amendment.

States have the right to regulate commerce within their state, and Congress the right to regulate interstate commerce. Driving a vehicle falls well within the regulatory bounds of commerce, and can easily be argued within the government's domain of regulation, and not a unilateral right of the citizen.

So, I'll ask again. Do you have anything that supports your claims?
