世界十大奇葩驾驶法规
6. 在南非,牧羊人有优先选择道路的权利。尽管有人带着鸡和鸵鸟过马路的情况不太可能出现,但法律明确规定,如果路上骑着或者赶着牛属动物(包括马,驴,骡子,绵羊,山羊,猪或者鸵鸟)的人发出信号或提出要求,驾驶者必须停下车辆。否则,罚款将高达500美元。
7.Politeness isn’t just the culture in Japan, it’s part of driving laws. Splashing a pedestrian with a puddle from your car will cost you over $60. The country is also strict with its DUI laws—riding with or loaning your car to a driver who gets caught drinking and driving can lead to a fine costing thousands of dollars.
7. 在日本,恭敬有礼不仅仅蕴含在文化中,也在交通法规中有所体现。如果你把水坑里的水溅到人行道上,你将会被罚款60美元。日本关于酒后驾车的法律也十分严格。酒后驾车或者把你的车借给喝过酒的人,如果被发现,将会导致上千美元的罚款。
8.Careless driving laws exist both in the United States and in the United Kingdom, but it can get draconian in the UK, where motorists have been ticketed for eating a sandwich or apple.
8. 美国和英国都有《反粗心驾驶法》。但在英国,这项法律十分严苛,如果有人边吃三明治或苹果边开车,将会收到罚单。
9.Although some countries like Italy restrict driving access to certain zones, Manila, Philippines takes the cake for the most convoluted traffic law. You can’t drive in some of the busiest districts of Manila, depending on the day of the week and the last digit on your license plate. For example, if your plate ends with 1 or 2, you can be fined if caught driving between 7am and 7pm on a Monday.
9. 尽管像意大利等一些国家也有对开车进入某些特定区域的限制,但菲律宾马尼拉则专门为其制定了复杂的交通法规。在马尼拉,要根据车牌尾数和星期几来决定你是否开车进入最繁华的地段。举例来说,假如你的车牌尾数是1或2,如果你被发现在周一早上7点和晚上7点之间驾驶,你将被处以罚款。
10.The United States isn’t immune from bizarre laws, either. In Montana it’s illegal to have sheep in the cab of your truck unless there’s a chaperone—but luckily it’s legal to keep Dolly inside the passenger cabin without supervision. In Nevada driving camels on highways is prohibited.
10. 美国也有一些奇葩法律。例如在蒙大拿州,把羊放在驾驶室是违法的,除非有一个女伴同时在场——但是,幸运的是,把克隆羊多莉放在驾驶室而没有监护则是法律允许的。在内华达州,在高速公路上骑骆驼是违法的。
