The fact that motor vehicle laws did not descend from common law and are technically (very technically) viewed as civil offenses in no way, shape, or form means that law enforcement cannot stop you unless there is a suspicion of criminal activity. Wake up call, Clarence! Government has a right (and obligation) to prosecute and prevent potentially deadly civil offenses that could not possibly have emerged from common law. Perhaps you want to live in a society where teens drive 90mph past an elementary school at 3 PM, but I don't. No person with a brain would want to live in that society. I'm sure you consider yourself a libertarian, but if you are advocating the removal of Chapter 20 from the General Statutes, you are far more an anarchist. In fact, if the Libertarian Party faces one major problem right now, it is the inability of so many of its members to realize that there IS a middle, common-sense ground between the Obama/Clinton nightmare we may be heading for, and total anarchy.
