What’s illegal where you live, but cops will never actually stop you for?

Yeah the town I grew up in still has one that says Horses can't be left unattended in the street. I'd bet there are a ton of old laws on the books in almost every town but people just don't know much about them

If the law isn’t causing problems you may as well keep it. Anyway I’m sure no one wants unattended horses in the street, your home town is prepared if it ever happens.

That one would probably still be enforced if you just left your horse in the middle of the road.

Blue Laws are laws specifically governing activities on a Sunday or other specific days, like not allowing alcohol sales on Sunday. It has nothing to do if they are enforced or not.
