I assume you are insinuating that the operator of a motor vehicle has complete authority to roam free wherever they please without regard for others? ie. on sidewalks, on trails, on bike paths, and in some cases drive against the flow of traffic? And are you saying in all cases they can choose and have the right to freely run over pedestrians as they see fit?

@NarrativeBear @lnxtx No, people have a right to use legally owned weapons in self-defense, so a driver has no right to drive recklessly and endanger random people and can only use their car as a weapon if their life is in imminent danger from someone else’s assault, such as a pedestrian standing in front of their car firing a gun at them.
