There isn’t actually any rule that says you have to drive on the road.

This is a friendly reminder to read our rules.

Remember, /r/Showerthoughts is for showerthoughts, not "thoughts had in the shower!"

(For an explanation of what a "showerthought" is, please read this page.)

Rule-breaking posts may result in bans.

There are rules for where you CAN'T drive and that includes most areas outside of roads and parking lots and such.

In some states, you'll get a ticket for driving off road vehicle unless you have an off-road vehicle (ORV) sticker unless you're on private property.

Does it have to be your own private property or do I need an off road license for someone else’s private property?

That would be trespassing. I'm referring to public lands or even on lakes when they are frozen in the winter.

Its only trespassing if you don’t get permission.

Permission wasn't mentioned

A lack of it wasn’t either. There is no objective reason to favor one over the other. It is also entirely incidental to the original question.

This may have gotten out of hand, of course you can if you have permission.

The rule is better known as “common sense” or “not being a total asshat”.
