Subject: RE: BS: Which is the silliest British law?
So if you're a Scotsman you had better not live in York, or you may be either killed or prosecuted depending on whether you practise archery on Sundays! In England we are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. However, if our cars are parked on our own land when the road tax expires and we haven't declared Statutory Off-Road Notification, we can be found guilty of failing to declare that we are innocent (of keeping or using an untaxed vehicle on the public road).
