The 25 Strangest Traffic Laws In America (that you’ve probably never heard of)

Putting A Bench In The Middle Of A Street

There are arguably few things that feel worst than being benched which might be the reason that it is illegal to place a bench in the middle of a street in Nevada. (Okay, that might not have anything to do with it but it is still something that we would advise against).

Hitting Someone Costs A Fee Of Seventy-Eight Dollars

If you have ever been hit by a car anywhere but in Sarasota, Florida, consider yourself lucky. The reason for this is that the fine for hitting someone with your car in this Florida city only forces the perpetrator of the crime to pay a seventy-eight dollar fine. Although that can likely get you a fancy dinner (or two depending on your definition of fancy) we believe that this fine is much too low for having to deal with the repercussions of being involved in a car accident.

Driving With Unopened Beer

We all know (or at least should know) that drinking with open drink containers is not only frowned upon but also illegal in the majority of the United States of America. However, what you might not know it is illegal in Scituate, Rhode Island to transport unopened beer. Please don’t take this as an open invitation to drink and drive or we will hunt you down and… we will leave it there.
