However, all California drivers (and those who permanently move to California from out-of-state) are required to have a valid California driver's license. Those caught driving without a license can be criminally prosecuted under California Vehicle Code Section 12500 VC.
If you are driving, then you always need to carry a driver's license while operating a vehicle. Therefore, if you are moving between states by driving, you will need to have your license. However, the driver's license is not necessary to the right to travel.
However, traveling does not equate to driving. In the Constitution's view, travel refers to moving freely between states, not the unlicensed operation of a vehicle. This point was strongly reinforced in Saenz v. Roe (1999), rejecting the belief in an absolute, unrestricted freedom.
357 U. S. 117-130. (a) The right to travel is a part of the "liberty" of which a citizen cannot be deprived without due process of law under the Fifth Amendment. Pp. 357 U. S. 125-127.
Is it constitutional for the government to require a license to drive? There's nothing in the US Constitution giving the Federal government any right to license drivers.
It's a little more complex than that. The Supreme Court has ruled that there is a fundamental right to travel between the states, and you do not need a drivers license to do so.
For information regarding a specific legal issue affecting you, please contact an attorney in your area. Driving without a valid driver's license is a crime in all 50 states. Each state outlines the specifics of this traffic offense in its traffic laws or motor vehicle code.
What the believers of the no-license-required viewpoint overlook is the fact that even though the federal government doesn't mandate a national driver license, the US Supreme Court, on multiple occasions, has confirmed a state's authority to establish licensing requirements for drivers.
