OREGON:

Drivers must yield to pedestrians who are standing on the sidewalk. (????)

One may not test their physical endurance while driving a car on a highway. (Applies to road head?)

Drivers may not pump their own gas. (RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE)



Best ones from your state, province or country, gogogogo.

true stereotype is true.


They do let me pump my own gas when i'm on my motorcycle though, but i have to pay them and let them set it all up for me so it still sucks as bad as in a car

Idea. The Acropolis Steakhouse should get a few pumps and have the girls fill up. I think I would drive out to Portland just to top off :-D

thats what public intoxication and noise violations are for. the context of the law says that it is illegal to be intoxicated and nothing else.

Apparently its illegal to cross the border from Minnesota to Wisconsin with a duck on your head. I don't really believe that, but this one is definitely true..

Its legal to "consume alcohol" in Wisconsin even if you're under 21, as long as you're with a parent or guardian. Ridiculous...ly awesome!

I live in Washington. One was about "No Lollipops Allowed"? I don't think so. But here are the best two.

-Women who sit on men’s laps on buses or trains without placing a pillow between them face an automatic six-month jail term.
-It is illegal to carry a fishbowl or aquarium onto a bus because the sound of the water sloshing may disturb other passengers.

Greasy spoon quality, half the price. Steak and eggs for $5, reasonable portion.

Its a little weird, I'll admit, B-team on stage. Honestly, it was more entertaining checking out what kind of people are in there at that time.

I honestly dont think it matters what you are wearing while committing a murder... Doesn't really change the illegality of it.
