In Memphis, Tennessee, a woman is not to drive a car unless a man warns approaching motorists or pedestrians by walking in front of the car that is being driven.


what a great idea that is, should be adopted globally.

In 1985, a pregnant women was falsely accused of shoplifting a basketball.

Chester
You can only shoot a Welsh person with a bow and arrow inside the city walls and after midnight.

Hereford
You can shoot a Welsh person all day, but only on Sunday, with a Longbow, in the Cathedral Close.

York
Upon sight of a Scotsman, it is still legal to shoot him with a bow and arrow, except on Sundays.

Scotland
You may not fish on Sundays.
It is illegal to be a drunk in possession of a cow.
Trespassing on someone else's land is legal.
You are presumed guilty until proven innocent for some crimes.
If someone knocks on your door and requires the use of your commode, you must let them enter.

I gave my little boy the tesco mag last week to keep him quiet , got home and was leafing through the pages and came across the worlds craziest laws , so heres a few for you to  at.

IN Rajasthan , India , carrot seeds are thought to be a contraceptive and woman are required by law to eat them in a bid to help control the population .

Under an old law in Birmingham Alabama , couples can be fined $25 if they make love " on the steps of any church after the sun goes down "

In Hartford Conneticut an 18th century law forbids anyone to " teach or endeavour  to try to educate dog "........... go figure !!

There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins who pay for the privelege of having sex for the first time.

Reason: under Guam law, it is forbidden for virgins to marry.

You wont find that one down the job centre
