The law is strong, but it's law! True, sometimes those in power are "carried away", and absurd and even funny prohibitions and restrictions are born.
Today we have prepared for you rating of the most ridiculous laws from all over the world. Having studied some of the pearls, one will inevitably think that our legislators have not thought of much yet. The “lawmakers” from the United States and Great Britain are more weird than others, although other countries were also noted in our rating.
