Strange national laws

each local region or country has its own customs and beliefs.

but some of the country's laws are a little weird, and the donkeys have to know in their travels.

it is illegal to drive naked in thailand.

you might just get a slap on your wrist or on your tanned shoulder or be fined hundreds of baht (about $10).

one might say that this is no more than an excuse for the traffic police in moscow to charge the money.

how dirty is that? a recent newspaper survey defined it: half of the people thought that the car was dirty because it could not see the licence plate, while another 9 per cent believed that it was dirty because it could not see the driver ' s face.

a ticket would certainly be paid for a dirty car road, but the fine, to put it this way, is negotiable.

if you come up here and give the traffic cop $100, it'll be done right away, you can drive away.

if you rent a car locally, remember to turn on the light and not drive it up would be punished by less than $100.

denmark and other scandinavian countries have such legal provisions.

because studies have found that driving with lights on will make other drivers more aware of your presence, thereby reducing the incidence of traffic accidents.

it is known that this legal provision may be used in the future by other eu countries.

the law varies in italy.

venetians do not want their beloved buildings to be suffocated by pigeon dung.

the local authorities also did not welcome tourists who were hospitable in st.

marco's square, feeding pigeons and making a mess of the plaza.

they do not like tourists naked, crawling into fountains or sitting on sidewalks chewing sandwiches.

similarly, in rome, jumping into the fountain is not welcome.

if the above acts are only first committed, the authorities warn; if they are caught again, they have to face a fine of up to $600.

of course, if you're mistaken, you'll get the fine better, and you'll probably end up paying less than $50 or $60.

government spokespersons in venice also stated that the local police were more tolerant towards tourists who fed pigeons just to take photographs.

it's illegal to eat in public during ramadan.

if you travel to the uae during ramadan for muslims, any eating or drinking in public during the daytime fast is fined.

and don't worrygood hands.

islamic traditions affect not only the culture of the country but also its laws.

this country will not tolerate intimacy in public.

in theory, a couple of unmarried men and women sitting alone in a car with coloured glass and being discovered can cause great trouble.

the penalties for these acts are very flexible, but the experience of a number of tourists can indeed serve as a precedent for you.

for example, two of my british were sentenced to three months in prison for violating the regulations in public.

a group of tourists drinking juice in the streets were also fined $275 each.

no coins are allowed in canada.

p >the canadian monetary act 1985 provides for the use of coins, which also includes how much is paid as a reasonable range.

for example, goods valued at $10 are not allowed to be purchased in all coins.

items of more than $20 are also not allowed to use all one dollar coins.

of course, if the seller doesn't care about a lot of coins, it can do that.

of course, he can deny you by law.

in singapore, where chewing gum, feeding birds in squares, spitting on the ground and not flushing toilets are prohibited, you are punished.

the above-mentioned legislation derives from the government ' s concern to preserve national cleaning.

the requirement to eat gum has been relaxed since 2004 and it is no longer illegal to eat a quit of gum (which requires a prescription by a doctor and the buyer's name is recorded).

however, the current liberalization of the sale and consumption of gum is not realistic.

on holidays, singaporeans occasionally go to neighbouring malaysia to buy some gum and "sneak" when they come home.

they joked about the fact that singaporeans could actually take half an hour to malaysia to smoke, chew gum and go back to singapore.

the practice of grenada not allowing certain tourists on the

cruise ship in a bathing suit has often led to discomfort on the part of grenada's police, many of whom would wear a bathing suit from the beach to the street, which has left the police in a state of shock.

the police want to stop this by imposing fines.

in addition, tourists with low jeans may also be punished.

theoretically, a fine of up to us$ 270 would have been imposed for these acts.

however, visitors were comforted by members of the tourism board who said that, to date, no police had appeared to have imposed such punishment.

in england, meat pies are forbidden for christmas in england.

this became law in oliver cromwell's 17th century.

but it is clear that today, even the british themselves are “trying to test” every good holiday, and the failure to eat meat pie at christmas has been chosen as “the most strange rule in britain”.

spanish women must wear earrings on the streetsif a woman goes to the streets without an earring, it's as if she's a normal person with no clothes on.

it's hard for a woman without an earring.

if you want to go to the italian church in a warm climate, do not just wear shorts and sleeves.

visitors to the catholic cathedral of the italian church must be careful not to wear shorts or sleeves, whether men or women.

there will be security guards or members of the teaching community at the entrance to the church, so be sure to wear a long-sleeve or other hoodie when leaving.

it is illegal to cut cactus in arizona for no reason and punishable by up to 25 years' imprisonment.

therefore, it is important that tourists travelling here do not have the idea of “home with a little cactus as a memorial”.

i'm sorry
