Men Can’t Knit During the Fishing Season & Other Dumb NJ Laws
There are many very outdated laws out there that today just seem plain dumb. While we can't figure out why some of these were even put into effect, they are there and ready to get you in trouble. Here are some of NJ's dumbest laws.

You gotta make sure your hands are in tip top shape!

You know what they say, two wrongs don't make a right.

This may have made sense before the inventions of blinkers, but now this just seems like a disaster waiting to happen. Can you imagine the parkway during summer traffic? The sound would be deafening.

This is a law I can get behind. Part of me wonders if this was sponsored by the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld.

While the argument can be made to outlaw vanity plates completely, I can't think of why this is for people who have been convicted of a DUI exclusively.

Yes! I want to further this law to all people of both opposite and same sex. Just don't annoy people. The law is a bit more in depth than this. Read the law here.

I am outraged! How can anyone deny me of a crisp pickle on a Sunday. As an avid pickle lover I say we protest by eating pickles on the steps of the capital building on Sunday. Who's with me? This law is only limited to Trenton, but I couldn't resist adding it.
