Almost
all countries have existing outdated laws that are probably not enforced since
the lawmakers themselves are unaware of their presence. Regardless of this,
these laws are still valid since they are not yet legally repealed. The US is
not spared from these kinds of weird laws. Our research uncovered some of the
most ridiculous and bizarre US laws still in effect these days.
8 Most Bizarre Laws in the
US that Doesn't Make Any Sense
While
most of the laws have been enacted to uphold and protect the rights of the
citizens, this list of ridiculous laws is illogical, impractical, and
unexplainable. From the rules that define the clothes of the murderer to your
choices of food, let us look at the laws that made our list of extremely
strange laws.
New Jersey: No Bullet Proof Vest While Murdering
If
murdering is considered illegal, apparently, putting on a bulletproof vest when
your crime is happening is even more illegal. It means that you are in really
deep trouble if you are wearing a bulletproof vest when you commit murder.
North Carolina: No Bingo for More than 5 Hours
You
better keep your eyes on the clock when playing Bingo in North Carolina since
it is against the law to play Bingo for more than 5 hours. It is unfortunate if
you just need one number to win the jackpot prize, and you have already
approached the time limit.
Quitman, Georgia: It is Illegal for the Chicken to Cross the
Road
Yes,
chickens are in deep shit if they are found crossing the road in Quitman,
Georgia. Chickens are now on a hunger strike after learning that ducks are free
to cross the main road.
California: Vehicles Without a Driver Should not Surpass
60mph
I
know what you are thinking, that an unmanned vehicle can't reach one mph, but
California needs to draw the line. You can't be so sure if a car without a
driver will go 61mph.
Arizona: No Cutting of Cactus
It
appears that cutting cactus is considered a major crime in Arizona. Anyone illegally
cutting this lovely cactus can serve up to 25 years of imprisonment. If you
accidentally cut a cactus in Arizona, you need to find a good lawyer.
North Carolina: No Singing Off-Key
If
you have a very bad singing voice, it should be a struggle to live in North
Carolina since it is against the law to sing off-key. Wait a minute; I remember
the American Idol audition held in North Carolina, where there were a lot of
horrible singers. Shouldn't they be prosecuted? I mean, we should take this law
seriously.
Connecticut: Biking that will Exceed 65mph is Illegal
If
someone is caught biking at a speed of more than 65mph, they should prepare to
suffer the consequences.
Avoid Sending Pizza in
Louisiana
You
should have the decency not to send a pizza to anyone in Louisiana. Anyone found
guilty of making this horrible gesture will be required to pay a fine of $500.
These
are just some of the laws that still exist today that are just plain
ridiculous.
