I've often said that the average American has broken half a dozen laws before he gets his teeth brushed every morning, and committed two felonies by time he gets to work.
you must live in one tough neighborhood.
Most states have a law that says it is illegal to open you car door into oncoming traffic,meaning,if you go to the store and park on the street,getting out on the driver side you are breaking the law.New Mexico was a nightmare as far as police were concerned.Visited family there twice.Vowed never to go back.Police checkpoints everywhere.We were stopped 3 times just going to the store.A 3 mile trip!
I think about that every day... Unfortunately, the system is a joke.
