Discover 10 crazy laws in the world
There are plenty of weird laws in the world that might look different from your country's laws. I am sure that this article will surprise you and might make you laugh because there will be some laws that do not really make sense!
1. In Quitman Georgia, the government does not allow the chicken to cross the road. The owners must take responsibility to have chickens under control all the time because there might be a problem after the chicken gets crushed.
2. In Nevada Eureka, it is prohibited for men who grow their mustache or beard to kiss women. It is no longer enforced.
3. In Thailand people must wear underwear before leaving their house, it is illegal to stay in public without wearing underwear! As I am Thai, I haven’t heard anybody being arrested because of not following this law.
4. People are not allowed to fart in public after 6 p.m. on Thursdays! In Florida, it is illegal to release gas from the bowels through the anus. It has not been enforced because there is some debate that it is not clear why pass wind in public gets prohibited.
5. You cannot flush the toilet after 10 p.m. in Switzerland. It is quite strict that people must clear their business before 10 p.m. It is the apartments’ law because it might create the noise to disturb the neighbours in the apartment.
6. People are not allowed to have a donkey sleeping in their bathtub after 7 p.m. in Arizona. There was a flooding situation in the town caused by the dam breaking, the donkey was still in the bathtub, so this law was basically created to protect the animal, but it does not exist anymore.
7. People are legally required to give a smiley face at all times except in the hospitals and funerals in Milan Italy. This was created for the way to bring the frame to Milan
8. It is forbidden to get fat in Japan. It is illegal for people 40 years old to get fat because they care about the health risk.
9. Running out of petrol or gas is illegal in Germany’s Autobahn. Drivers are required to fill the gas or petrol before going on the highway. This will bring a huge problem to the driver and other people if they run out of fuel.
10. It is forbidden in a part of France if you die without having a Pre-Purchase Burial Plot. People cannot die within the town of Sarpourenx, unless they have the burial plot.
These are some weird laws that I would like to share with you, some laws might not have been enforced.
