I think what you're saying, though, is that your rights cannot be taken away from you but you can forfeit them.
So, a person in prison has forfeited their right to liberty. They've done something that society has deemed worthy of the loss of that right.
But doesn't the same thing happen with privileges? Driving a car is a privilege...screw it up and you lose that privilege. So what is the difference between losing a right and losing a privilege?

I would never claim to be an expert on the matter, but privileges are earned. You earn the privilege to drive a car by virtue of age, testing, and it is isssued at a state level. Hence, the state may remove it.
