    I can actually understand this one to an extent. A driver’s license and vehicle registration are only required to drive on public roads, not legal requirements for having a car. That said, taking a car onto a public road without the aforementioned is illegal and should result in a fine.

      Driving an unregistered vehicle without any license on a public road is endangering others. So a fine would not be sufficient.

      It’s the same arguing as carrying an unregistered weapon without a license in public space. That would be confiscated as well instead of being fined.

          Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Normal firearm registration is not required (or even possible?) in the majority of US states.

            I don’t think he’s being downvoted for saying the truth, I think it’s people being pissed off with the double standard which is firearm ownership
