Stupid Alabama State Laws Everything has a purpose behind it no matter how strange. That is why there are warning such as “Don’t use in the shower” on a hair dryer and “Do not take orally” on a tube of Preparation H. Same goes for laws, I am sure at one time these were relevant. At least I would hope so. Now they are considered by most as stupid laws and to be honest, some had to be stupid even at the time they were past.

So as we wander through, at first, the 50 states that comprise the United States, we hope you get a laugh or two and hopefully not arrested for these stupid state laws:

Stupid Alabama State Laws

It is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle – Sadly, at some point this became a big enough problem in Alabama that a law was needed to curtail it.

If you think that was enough to protect the great citizens of Alabama, think again. Public safety was a big concern and it seems that getting stuff in the eyes down south was an issue thus a need for this law - Boogers may not be flicked into the wind.

Knowing how irritating it can be to have to go to the store right down the road but have to go around the whole block to get there because of one way streets we have this to help - It is legal to drive the wrong way down a one-way street if you have a lantern attached to the front of your automobile.

Of course some stupid laws can go a long way in explaining a lot of things, like this beauty - Incestuous marriages are legal.

Southern gentlemen our known for their manors but little did we know they were forced into it. Men may not spit in front of the opposite sex.

If you’re going to allow incestuous marriage then I guess you can expect to have to take the next step in protecting the consequences of those actions - You may not have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at any time.

Lastly, now we know why everyone in the South knows everyone else - Masks may not be worn in public.
