Thinking about hunting water-based game from your car in Tennessee, or carrying a sheep in your car without a chaperone in Oregon? You’d better think twice. CNN’s compiled some of the more unusual laws pertaining to motor vehicles across the United States - and they’re pretty out there.
Some, including not leaving children or pets inside of hot vehicles, or hazards imposed by driving too slow, are somewhat self-explanatory, but others - including an “invisible” stop line placed 10 feet out from where the “visible” line was - are a bit odd. Bizarre describes many other statutes, including California’s law that no vehicle without a driver may exceed 60 mph, while Tennessee’s mandate that you can’t hunt game other than whales from a moving vehicle.
We can’t help but think that some of these more ‘oddball’ laws aren’t enforced on a regular basis, so we’re asking - have you ever been nabbed for one? What’s the strangest traffic law you’ve had brought upon you by an officer of the law? Sound off in the comments section.
