双语新闻:世界十大奇葩驾驶法规（一）

2014-04-02 09:54:54来源：中国日报网

　　Whether due to antiquated laws that never got updated, or logistic challenges unique to that country, the world is full of strange laws. Some may not sound outlandish in concept, but have extreme consequences; for example, if you’re in Vietnam without a Vietnamese driver’s license, you risk a prison sentence of up to three years. Others—like banning the practice of tying your pet on the roof in Alaska—seem to be the result of an overzealous legal system.

　　也许是因为过时的法律没有及时更新，也许是因为某个国家面临着与众不同的挑战，这个世界上总是充满了奇奇怪怪的法律法规。有一些在概念上听起来也许并不奇怪，但却有着很极端的后果。比如，如果你在越南而没有越南的驾驶证，你就会有被判处三年有期徒刑的风险。其他的——比如阿拉斯加规定，禁止将宠物栓在车顶——看起来是出自于一个过度热情的法律体系。

　　No dirty cars, or car washes on the street

　　1.If your car is dirty enough to pen dust art, in Moscow it’s liable for a fine of 2000 rubles (about $55). Although enacted in part to prevent muddied and obscured license plates, it’s up to the officers to make the call. Worse yet, it’s illegal to wash your car by hand on public property for ecological reasons—forcing you to take it to one of the few car wash facilities.

　　1. 在莫斯科，如果你的车脏到可以在上面画沙画，你将被罚款2000卢布(约55美元)。尽管这条规定在某种程度上为了防止泥土遮盖拍照，但是否触犯法规取决于警官。更要命的是，出于保护生态的原因，在公共场所里人工洗车是违法的——这等于是强迫你把车开到洗车中心用设备洗车，然而，在莫斯科，这样的洗车设备屈指可数。
