Because vehicles were made with transportation in mind. Getting you from point A to point B, then perhaps to C or back to A in a time efficient manner as compared to what was before, camels, horses etc.
And by the way, the limitations are there. Age restriction, have to pass a license for it, heavy ticketing for vehicular mischief (double parking, passing in non passing lanes, going over speed etc.).
Can't really ban it because of this, or until a new more efficient way is invented to move around. Teletransportation much? Flying massive drones? Who knows?
In any case, right now, it is heavily regulated as is.
