With the introduction of the new hoon laws, I thought it
would be appropriate to have a look at some of the crap laws we have in this country. The passive acceptance of such laws shows our weakness. I've heard that in Italy no one at all pays parking fines! Because literally no one paid, the authorities really couldn't do anything about it.. They gave up! My top 5 dumbest laws: 1. If you lose traction of two tyres the cops confiscate your car! 2. If you drive 63km/h in a 60km/h zone you get a speeding fine! 3. If you drink a beer on the beach, or whilst having a picnic you get a fine! 4. If a burglar gets bitten by your dog whilst robbing your house, he sues you! 5. If you Jay-walk you get a fine! I read in the local paper that police are targeting hoons to save innocent lives, becaue they reckon that if you hoon you may crash into other cars. In the next paragraph they said that they will be targeting a quiet industrial estate which is "notorious" for burnouts at night. Surely, they are contradicting themselves... What the hell is wrong with a young fella doing a burnout in some industrial estate at night??? The worst he can do is bust a rim on the gutter. What a joke! In my opinion bad laws just turn the community against the police - which is not a good thing. |
