but the two laws for the Netherlands are not funny at all... is this really such a boring country that we don't even have a couple of those absurd laws?

At least France has the law that ppl can't name their pigs Napoleon

Florida:
* If an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle.

Texas:
* When two trains meet each other at a railroad crossing, each shall come to a full stop, and neither shall proceed until the other has gone.

hence the massive delays
