Last week we talked about a photo series that ironically portrayed people breaking 8 bizarre US laws. Since many of you appreciated that post quite a lot, we decided to go deeper about the ridiculous US laws that are still in effect today. We’ve discovered so many unbelievable laws that a book wouldn’t be enough to write them all, so we gathered our 22 favorites in this article just for you.
It’s our personal top list, therefore you’ll find our very favorite at the end of the list.
If you are aware of some bizarre law still in effect in your country feel free to tell us in the comments.
