An assortment of seemingly crazy state driving laws exists and can be found easily across the Internet. Most of these examples are sourced from newspapers and come from the site Dumb Laws, Stupid Laws: We have blue laws, old laws, and just plain weird laws!, whose editors did not respond to a call for comment. Here goes:

In California, no vehicle without a driver may exceed 60 miles per hour.

In Florida, if an elephant, goat or alligator is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle.

In Montana, it is illegal to have a sheep in the cab of your truck without a chaperone.

In Oregon, a door on a car may not be left open longer than necessary.

In Tennessee, it is illegal shoot any game other than whales from a moving automobile.

I guess we know why there is no SeaWorld in Tennessee.

There's some really f-ed up laws out there. In Kansas or something, I think, there's a law where you cannot transport your donkey in a bathtub. Also in Florida, a man may not wear a strapless dress after 7PM on a thursday night.

In Montana, it is illegal to have a sheep in the cab of your truck without a chaperone.

so if there are two people in the cab you can have a sheep with you... Montana must be a lonely state.

"It it illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors."

"Any motorist driving along a country road at night must stop every mile and send up a rocket signal, wait 10 minutes for the road to be cleared of livestock, and continue."
