6 Countries that Have Unusual Driving Laws

Jakarta – Driving laws are made to maintain security and safety on the road. However, every country has its own ways of behaving. But who would have thought that the traffic rules known all over the world do not apply everywhere.

So, here are five countries with the unusual driving rules in the world, as reported from various sources. 

While driving, we sometimes feel the need for a snack or drinking some water. But in Cyprus, drivers have to be patient with this, because both are forbidden while driving. Even a sip of water is not allowed. Better to take a short break on long journeys. 

If you like to feel the wind on your body, you should go to Germany. Here, the car is considered a “private space” and therefore it is allowed to drive naked. 

Only when getting out of the car, drivers do have to put something back on, because in this case they are entering a public space, and being naked is not allowed there.

It is not always a car that comes from the opposite direction. In countries like South Africa, it can also happen that a horse, a donkey or a pig blocks the way. Drivers must give right of way to animals crossing the road. They are not allowed to speed up or deliberately hit them.

We all know it, it’s raining cats and dogs and puddles form on the side of the road. It can happen that you splash pedestrian as you drive past. In Japan, however, there are heavy penalties for this. So it is better to drive slowly and carefully through the rain.

In the United Arab Emirates, camels are an important status symbol. Respect for the hoofed animals goes so far that they always have the right of way on thoroughfares.

Although this law has not been written down, it is nevertheless observed by the inhabitants.

6. China

If a pedestrian runs into the road in front of you, what do you do? Probably apply the brakes fully. However, this is illegal in China. If you behave morally and do your best not to run over the pedestrian, you will be fined for stopping.
