Australia fines non-voters and Finland ties speeding fines to income. 🗳🚗 Some laws that circulate as internet trivia are ordinary public policy. Australia uses compulsory voting at federal elections, Finland calculates many day-fines from income, and New Zealand’s Registrar-General can decline baby names that resemble official titles or cause offence. Other examples are narrower but still real. France punishes failure to assist a person in danger when help can be given safely, Singapore prohibits most chewing-gum imports, California wage orders require suitable seats when work reasonably permits them, and UK law still covers handling certain fish in suspicious circumstances. #LawFacts #WorldNews #ComparativeLaw #PublicPolicy #LegalFacts
