Kansas
"If two trains meet on the same track, neither shall proceed until the other has passed."
But that would be.....wait, what?!? First off, I'm fairly certain that is logically impossible. How can one train pass another if both are not allowed to move until the other one has passed? In fact, I would love to see this situation arise just so both conductors sit there until one or the other gets the balls to break the law and pass the other one. How is it possible for trains to get anywhere in Kansas if they all have to stop the instant they get near another train and can't pass each other according to the law? I can only guess as to how this law came into existence. Kansas had one lawmaker who was considered "slow" mentally and when he proposed this law, his colleagues took pity on him and let it through just so that he would feel like he accomplished something. Afterwards, they probably gave him a lollipop and let him go outside and play. That's the only feasible explanation behind this idiotic law.
