The people we have in Austin, Texas are tasked with passing laws that keep us safe or keep us compliant with certain regulations. Sometimes these laws end up either forgotten about or fall victim to time itself. The thing about these odd or outdated laws is that they are still enforceable in East Texas, or anywhere in Texas, if officials deem it necessary. So yeah, you're going to go through these laws still on the books in Texas and raise an eyebrow. Some of these laws may still make a little bit of sense, too.
