Legal permission to operate a motor vehicle is a granted privilege, not a constitutional right. Perhaps if the illegal immigrants had considered this reality and its consequences in-depth, they would have elected to not place themselves in such a vulnerable position to be either exploited and/or oppressed. Simply put, they now find themselves in an untenable position because they willingly chose to place themselves in said position.
