=== Licensing ===

In many cases, it is unlawful to operate a vehicle without a license or certification. The least strict form of regulation usually limits what passengers the driver may carry or prohibits them completely (e.g., a Canadian [[Ultralight aviation|ultralight]] license without endorsements).<ref>{{cite web |work=[[Transport Canada]] |date=1 June 2010 |url=http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/regserv/cars/part4-401-1073.htm |title=Canadian Aviation Regulations, Part IV – Personnel Licensing and Training, Subpart 1 – Flight Crew Permits, Licences and Ratings |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120104223559/http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/regserv/cars/part4-401-1073.htm |archive-date=4 January 2012 |access-date=21 July 2011}}</ref> The next level of licensing may allow passengers, but without any form of compensation or payment. A private driver's license usually has these conditions. Commercial licenses that allow the transport of passengers and cargo are more tightly regulated. The most strict form of licensing is generally reserved for school buses, [[Dangerous goods|hazardous materials]] transports and emergency vehicles.

The driver of a motor vehicle is typically required to hold a valid [[driver's license]] while driving on public lands, whereas the pilot of an aircraft must have a license at all times, regardless of where in the jurisdiction the aircraft is flying.
