Strange laws
A ____
However, in many countries there are
also a lot of laws that seem a little
strange and dont make sense. For
example, in Utah in the USA, you
cant hunt whales. But the police
shouldnt worry too much, because
Utah is more than 800 kilometers
from the ocean! Who created this law
and why?
B ____
Some of the funniest laws are to do
with driving. In Denmark, you cant
start your car if a child is underneath
it. So, you should always look under
your car and check before you drive.
If youre a pedestrian in Beijing, then
you had better be very careful
because its illegal for drivers to stop
for pedestrians who are crossing the
street. But the funniest law to do with
driving is in Alaska. In Alaska, its
illegal to drive with a dog tied to the
roof of your car! This must be the
craziest law in the world!
C ____
Each country has a set of laws to
keep people safe and to prevent
crime. For example, each country
states which side of the road you
have to drive on. In the USA, you
drive on the right, and in Australia
you drive on the left. It would be
crazy if in any country you could drive
on both sides of the road. There
would be thousands of accidents!

D ____
In Thailand, you cant step on money
its illegal. So, if you see money on
the ground, you have to walk around
it. I dont know if youre allowed to
pick it up and put it in your pocket! In
Switzerland you cant flush your toilet
after 10 p.m. because it is too noisy.
But in Singapore, you must always
flush the toilet after you use it, even if

its late at night, and you can be fined

$500 if you dont. So people who
travel a lot should be very careful to
remember which country they are in.
