Every country has its own unique laws, some a little more weird than others. Here are some of the most unusual!
- In Thailand it is illegal to step on money as all the national bills and coins have a picture of the king’s face.
- South Carolina’s ‘mock proposal’ law means that anyone older than 16 can not propose if they do not mean it.
- Apparently in Iowa it is illegal for a man with a moustache to kiss a woman in public.
- And for those forgetful partners, be careful in Samoa, as it is illegal to forget your wife’s birthday there.
- In Victoria, Australia, it is illegal to change a lightbulb unless you’re a licensed electrician. Right.
- The UK still has a law from the Middle Ages that requires all males over the age of 14 to be trained in shooting a long bow.
- And for everyone who loves using their car hooter, in New York it is illegal to do so. If you do, you risk getting a fine of $350 (R4 670)!
So keep these weird laws in mind! And enjoy the weirdness of them.
