The second problem arises when someone from out of state doesn't know every wrinkle of local law. Consider Illinois' ban on carry aboard public transit. Folks are going to get busted for things they don't know are illegal, and this law doesn't protect them.
Boy, did open the can of worms starting this thread.
With the above quote as example and indulge me a bit.
This is with regards to motor vehicle law.
I obtained my DL in NYC. NY law is when you make a turn onto a 4 lane road (2 each way) left turn end you turn in the left lane and the same for right turns end in right lane.
Now the rub, here in FLA the law reads what ever lane you finish your turn in is o-kee-dokie and legal.
My point no matter what we do and where we travel we will never be totally versed in the law.
I understand MV law violations result in tickets and firearms result in possible jail time.
All I wanted to do with this thread was share what was sent to me.
