    6. A pregnant woman can legally relieve herself anywhere she wants, including in a policeman's helmet (four percent)

    See this one makes perfect sense to me. When you have an extra 8lbs sitting on your bladder literally SECONDS matter and when you gotta go....LOL!

    It's good to see that we in the US aren't the only ones with either outdated or just stupid laws on the books.

    Oh, I remember those days.  I remember once dashing frantically into a mens restroom because the line at the ladies was just too long and waiting was out of the question. Got a few strange looks, but I really wasn't of a mind to care.

    When I was PG my DH kept bugging me to ask a copper for the loan of his hat but I never got up the courage!

    Hey, here's a stupid law for you:  In the UK, you have to drive on the LEFT hand side of the road!  I know I know! Ludicrous!! Big Smile

    There is also one that says you are not allowed to have, erm, "loving relations" with a live fish.

    "Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life." (Pratchett, Jingo)
