I don't know how sensitive people will be about this, but here it goes:
In Florida, a diver caught without a dive flag gets a $168.00 fine. A boater buzzing a dive flag, if caught, gets a $50.00 fine. Go figure!!!
 
kaysville, ut: it is unlawfull to spit on the sidewalk... class c misd.
 
Females are forbidden from doing their own hair without being licensed by the state.

Oklahoma will not tolerate anyone taking a bite out of another's hamburger.

Dogs must have a permit signed by the mayor in order to congregate in groups of three or more on private property.

Whaling is illegal

Cars must be tethered outside of public buildings

Molesting an automobile is illegal.

Women may not gamble in the nude, in lingerie, or while wearing a towel.

You may not open a soda bottle without the supervision of a licensed engineer

Elephants are not to be taken into the downtown area.

Oral is a misdemeanor and is punisable by one year in jail and a $2,500 fine.

It is illegal to have the hind legs of farm animals in your boots.

What's the deal with the elephant laws?
 
This is awsome,

And If you don't pay the fine you'll get a arrested.......Really :11:

I once had to take a guy into custody during a traffic stop for a warrant out of Monroe Co. (keys) issued by the (then) Florida Marine Patrol for "failure to display a dive flag" :06:

So if you get caught in the Keys without a flag you had better pay the fine or you could be embarrased later on. Especially when you have to tell the other inmates what your in for. :wink:

Florida
  • Women may be fined for falling asleep under a hair dryer, as can the salon owner.

  • A special law prohibits unmarried women from parachuting on Sunday or she shall risk arrest, fine, and/or jailing.

  • If an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle.

  • It is illegal to sing in a public place while attired in a swimsuit.

  • Men may not be seen publicly in any kind of strapless gown.

  • Having intimate relations with a porcupine is illegal.

  • It is illegal to skateboard without a license.

If you go to the FL List at dumblaws.com, I can confirm that the Cape Coral, Naples, and Daytona ordinances are in fact true. Thank God there isn't anything about Men in G-string speedo's or I'd be a jail candidate every time I dive!
