Stupid Laws

I think it was probably in relation to a noise ordinance, but either way it's pretty stupid. I mean it's unlikely that I would check my watch then go stick my head out of the window into the backyard and tell Fido "Hey it's 6PM, stop barking!" and then expect him to remain quiet the duration of the night.

I check from that link...

British
Dumb Laws in United Kingdom. Crazy United Kingdom Laws. We have weird laws, strange laws, and just plain crazy laws!

:giggle:

Germany

Dumb Laws in Germany. Crazy Germany Laws. We have weird laws, strange laws, and just plain crazy laws! 2 lists - :giggle: but I don't consider "It is illegal to wear a mask" and "It is illegal for ones car to run out of gas on the Autobahn" as a dumb law. :dunno2:

Why?

Because the people and police can't identify the mask people who break the law due volience during strike, demonstration etc...

Because it could risk other driver's life if the car suddenly stopped on that autobahn (we are not allow to stop on the autobahn but at autobahn parkplace) It's impossible to stop during speed driving when other car suddenly stopped...and hit and end to kill them... We alway make sure that gas is full before go to Autobahn.
 
In Pennsylvania it is legal to sell a bicycle on a Sunday, but not a tricycle.
