The US Government has regulated the use of vehicles through the rationing of fuel and tires during WWI and WWII.

The states have the ability to adjust their licensing practices to do all sorts of things. Drivers that have violated the law have been restricted from driving except between home and work, or even from driving all together.

The US government, as with all others, has the right and duty to do what it sees best for its citizens.

It is possible, though unlikely, it could introduce Draconian laws to restrict a citizens movement, as it did to restrict the consumption of alcohol. The US Constitution notwithstanding.

They have the legal right to introduce such legislation. Whether they have the moral right is another question.

Freedom to drive?

No. That was lost when we accepted the idea that the government had a right to require a license to drive. If the state has a right to license, then they have the right to withhold the privilege.


Is the peugeot 206 car right or left hand drive?

Whether a car is right or left hand drive is dependent on in what country it will be sold. If it is sold in England, Australia, Japan or other countries where one drives on the left side of the road then the car is right-hand-drive. If the car is sold in most of the other countries on Earth then the car would be left-hand-drive as they drive on the right side of the road. So you can see, whether a car is right or left-hand-drive is dependent on the country in which it is sold, not the make or model of car.
