Obsolete laws

I think there are plenty of obsolete laws in Chilean legislation that have not been updated yet. Citizens may be fined because of them. Even nowadays we could find them stupid or useless. For example, there is a law that forbids individuals from to putting planters on  of apartments balconies(plants), but if you look throughout the city you can find that almost every apartment has flowers in recipients (planters) on ther balconyies. There are others that forbid to chewing gum in some public swimming pools and others that says that a person could be reported to the police if he/she is wearing a swimming suit which is too provocative/ or seductive .

Very interesting.  Thank you for sharing and good luck with your English studies!
