That's funny. The vast majority of people's "own property" they could drive on would be on average about 50 feet. I grew up on 3/4 acre lot, and my dad let me drive up and down the drive way to practice before I had a license, so I get what you mean. Just funny that it's such a bold suggestion knowing that it's applicable to such a small number of people

Yes, that's part of what I'm saying. The notion is absurd. The main point of a car for most people is inescapably social.

People who claim they want privacy while acting in society instead want something else, usually a lack of accountability.
