A:
You have the right to travel, but it must comply with state laws. Driving an unregistered vehicle and having a suspended license are violations that authorities can enforce, regardless of your intentions to exercise your travel rights.
Repeated stops can lead to further legal complications, including fines or additional charges. It's important to address the underlying issues by registering your vehicle and resolving the suspension of your license.
Consider reaching out to the Ohio Department of Motor Vehicles to understand the steps needed to get your registration and license reinstated. Taking these actions can help you avoid further stops and ensure you are traveling legally.
