Join me on a hilarious journey through the weirdest laws around the world. These peculiar rules will have you scratching your head and wondering, ‘How did this even become a law?’
10 Bizarre Laws That Could Land You In Trouble
1. You shouldn’t flush post 10 PM in Switzerland
You heard that right! Flushing at night is equal to noise pollution in Swiss country. While it’s not a crime, it’s certainly considered rude.
2. You cannot build sandcastles in Spain
Castles made of sand, fall in the sea eventually…or if you’re in Spain, cost you a hefty fine. Simply put, it’s illegal to build sandcastles on beaches.
3. You can’t chew gum in Singapore
Chewing gum is strictly prohibited. In fact, it hasn’t been bought or sold here. In a bid to keep the country clean and to avoid scraping gum off sidewalks, this offense can result in a $1000 fine.
4. You cannot drive a dirty car in Russia
In Russia, a sparkling clean car keeps the fines away. If your license plate is covered in dirt or if you’re caught looking shabby, you can get fined.
5. No wearing high heels to ancient Greek monuments
That’s right, you can’t strut to the Parthenon or the Acropolis in Athens. High heels can chip away at the fragile stones, so flats are encouraged to preserve these historic sites.
6. You cannot walk on the Autobahn in Germany
It makes sense why this law would exist on the highway that has no speed limits. It is also illegal to run out of fuel on the Autobahn.
7. Don’t honk in New York City
This is one of those strange laws India wishes it had. You could get slapped with a fine for honking without reason in New York City. It must only be used as a warning of danger.
8. You can’t wear camouflage clothing in the Caribbean
Whether you’re in Barbados, Jamaica, St. Vincent, or St. Lucia, you cannot get away with wearing camouflage unless you’re the law or in the military. The weird law also extends to camo accessories.
9. You cannot climb trees in Toronto
Without a permit, it is unlawful to climb trees in places like Toronto and Ottawa. While climbing is prohibited, it is also worth noting that trees are simply not to be interfered with.
10. You cannot drive shirtless in Thailand
Regardless of how hot the weather or your body is, or if you’re in a car or a motorcycle, the law states that driving shirtless in Thailand is illegal, and it’s in place for your own protection.
