Odd driving laws in California 

No matter where you go on this Earth, you are bound to find some strange laws made by governing bodies. Legislatures everywhere pass hundreds of laws and ordinances to keep a sense of order to society. Without laws, we would live in an anarchic, mayhem-ridden world.
