Rules are meant to be followed (I can hear you say ‘rules are meant to be broken). But if rules were as ridiculous as these, then you might require rethinking. We happened to come across some bizarre and almost pointless driving laws which we thought would be a light read.
1. Driving on German highways? Sure need you to be careful and prepared for any eventuality, like carrying an extra can of petrol with you. The law there says that one cannot stop on the Autobahn even if the car runs out of fuel.
2. Considering you can live, sleep, do drugs and even unmentionable stuff in a car, Cyprus laws are very particular about what they don’t like going on a car. Eating or drinking anything while driving in Cyprus is illegal…even water. Wonder if this rule were applied in India then quite a lot of businesses will become bankrupt.
3. In California and Tennessee shooting animals from your car is illegal, unless that animal is a whale. There goes deer season. But we like this rule anyway.
4. In Oklahoma you can read a newspaper, read a whole novel but dare you get caught with a comic book while behind the wheel, you will be fined. So save the masked man for later.
5. This one needs you to look at your calendar regularly. In Philippines, Manila, you are not allowed to drive your car on Mondays if its number ends in 1 or 2.
6. Your pet gorilla will probably have to take the bus in Massachusetts as you will be fined if cops find a gorilla in the backseat of your car. However, they never mentioned anything about the front seat.
