No, it was the Welsh that I shot that tested it by roaming around after midnight.

I think either a law of dallas or texas (or some Texan city, i forget) is when two trails meet at a cross-road they must both come to a complete stop.

Quote:
 
When two trains meet each other at a railroad crossing, each shall come to a full stop, and neither shall proceed until the other has gone.

It is illegal to take more than three sips of beer at a time while standing.

A recently passed anticrime law requires criminals to give their victims 24 hours notice, either orally or in writing, and to explain the nature of the crime to be committed.

The entire Encyclopedia Britannica is banned in Texas because it contains a formula for making beer at home.

hehe, seems like Texas is a little heavy on that whole "Beer" thing, ironically.

And yes alamir, your jokes are horrible.

Asking me "was it you that tested the law?" didn't exactly have me rolling on the floor laughing, either.

My post wasn't as much a joke than a turn-around to a lame set-up.

Not sure how the law is implemented but I can see why it'd be implemented.

There's some really stupid ones. Like these:

It is a misdemeanor to shoot at any kind of game from a moving vehicle, unless the target is a whale.

No vehicle without a driver may exceed 60 miles per hour.

Ok, the last one, honestly, HOW STUPID DO YOU HAVE TO BE?!?!

It gets worse:

Peacocks have the right of way to cross any street, including driveways.

Nobody is allowed to ride a bicycle in a swimming pool.

City Council order reads: "No dog shall be in a public place without its master on a leash.

You are not permitted to wear cowboy boots unless you already own at least two cows.

It is illegal to own a green or smelly animal hide

And REMEMBER KIDS:

Bowling on the sidewalk is illegal

Well because there are still some elementary schools that don't teach sexual-education. A scene like this may cause a lot of children to start asking their teacher questions. So I can see how parents wouldn't want an untrained teacher to start talking about sex without warning to the parents.
It happens all the time in nature, but a lot of parents would like to be the ones to give "the talk" over some untrained teacher...a place of worship may offend some ...especially if they can hear the sounds while praying.

.. a tavern..well.. its best for the forum if I don't go into details :P

Oh my God, I just found the funniest laws:

Detonating a nuclear device within the city limits results in a $500 fine.

Persons may not sleep on a road.

A man with a moustache may not kiss a woman

No one may annoy a lizard in a city park.

It is against the law to hold a private bingo game

Getting drunk on a playground is against the law.

Cars may not be driven in reverse

It is illegal to pour salt on a highway

Drinking intoxicating cement is prohibited.

It is illegal for a trumpet player to play his instrument with the intention of luring someone to a store. (WTF?!)

It is illegal to posses, own or raise roosters.

It is illegal to curse on a mini-golf course

It is illegal for a man to beat his wife with a strap wider than 2 inches without her consent.

You cannot bathe two babies in the same tub at the same time.

You may not hunt moths under a street light.

It is illegal to cry on the witness stand.

Toads may not be licked.
