World's Oddest Laws

Chewing gum in public, forgetting to flush the toilet, or naming a pig Napolean: Here are 10 random and strange laws that can land you in trouble when travelling. Make sure you do your research before leaving home (even though most of these laws are pretty near impossible to break)

1. When in France, if for some reason you find yourself purchasing a pig, don't name it Napoleon. It's illegal.

2. Don't chew gum in public in Singapore.

3. Ignore the pesky pigeons in Venice. It's illegal to feed them.

4. In Thailand, don't ride a motorcycle or car while shirtless.

5. Driving in Denmark? No matter the time of day, the headlights must be on.

6. In Singapore, don't even think of leaving a public toilet without flushing. The fine is $100.

7. If you encounter a Sasquatch in British Columbia (not very likely), don't kill it. I can see how this is a problem.

8. Don't flush the toilet after 10:00pm in Switzerland. Apparently it makes too much noise?

9. Thinking of packing your armour suit? Think again...In England, it's illegal to enter the Houses of Parliament wearing a suit of armour.

10. In Russia, it's illegal to drive a dirty car. I hope it rains a lot there.

Cheers,
