The Most Bizarre State Driving Laws in the Country
From camels and cows to dirty tires and empty gas tanks, there are some strange traffic laws on the books.
Bizarre Driving Laws
As the law-abiding citizens, we try to stay abreast of all the road rules. Sometimes however, that’s easier said than done. .
Here are some bizarre laws that states have come up with.
In the Northeast
Connecticut
You must grant right-of-way to any person guiding cattle across the roadway.
Maine
It’s illegal to sell a motor vehicle on Sunday.
In South Berwick, parking in front of Dunkin’ Donuts is prohibited.
Massachusetts
In Milford, peeping into the windows of automobiles is against the law.
It is illegal to travel on a roadway with a sleigh or sled drawn by a horse unless at least three bells are attached to some part of the harness.
New Hampshire
It’s against the law to inhale car fumes with the intent of inducing euphoria.
New Jersey
New Jersey is one of the only places where there is a statewide ban on drivers pumping their own gas. (it’s also prohibited in parts of Oregon).
Like in Massachusetts, you can’t drive a horse-drawn sleigh on a highway unless there are a sufficient number of bells attached to the horse’s harness.
Rhode Island
Section 11-22-11 of Rhode Island law says it’s illegal to ride a horse on a highway for the purpose of racing or testing the speed of the horse. Doing so could cost you $20.
You cannot operate a motorized tricycle on a Rhode Island interstate.
It Couldn’t Be Done
Edgar Guest – 1881-1959
Somebody said that it couldn’t be done,
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
Somebody scoffed: “Oh, you’ll never do that;
At least no one ever has done it”;
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat,
And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There are thousands to point out to you one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing
That “cannot be done,” and you’ll do it.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way—in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.”
This famous opening to A Tale of Two Cities resonates with our current social and political landscape. It’s another example of how history repeats itself. Let’s hope that in 2022 we will all find more sanity, more lightness, more hope, less upheaval, and more peace.
