Stupid State Laws - Oklahoma 2

Here comes another post about a state law that still exists on the books and why it is ridiculous (to see them all, click here):

Oklahoma

"It is against the law to read a comic book wile operating a motor vehicle."

Strike another one up to common sense.  My favorite part about this stupid law is that it specifically says that you can't read a comic book while driving, but it doesn't say anything about reading a newspaper or a book or a Playboy.  I guess that means it is perfectly fine to read the articles of said porno without any repercussions from Johnny Law.  The big question here is - how big of a nerd did some guy have to be that he couldn't put off reading his comic book for 20 minutes and make it home safely that caused him to get into a wreck, blamed it on reading his comic, and some idiot had to make it a law to forbid from it happening in the future?  Geez, there are some stupid people out there.

"We can only assume the pilot was reading a comic book, too.  How else do you explain the plane crashing on Lost?  Oh yeah."
