双语新闻:世界十大奇葩驾驶法规（四）

2014-04-02 10:00:20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。

　　4.On the other end of extreme, France requires its drivers to carry a portable breathalyzer at all times when driving a car. The one-time kits cost around $5, and if you don’t have one the fine is a paltry 11 euros ($15)—but the law is seldom enforced.

　　4. 另一个极端情况，法国要求驾驶员在驾驶时随时携带便携式酒精测定仪。这样的一次性设备大约要5美元，如果你没有携带，罚款仅为11欧元(15美元)——但是这条法律很少被执行。
