Nice old piece of law: taxi drivers - of the licenced kind (black cabs as they are referred to over here) - are allowed to pee out from the cab.
Actually they are allowed to pee against the wheels. This only applies to licensed Hackney carriage drivers
Reason? Because they are not allowed to leave the horses unattended!
Of course, if one of them tries to use this law, you can then have them arrested for not having their bale of hay in the boot to feed the horse (yes, you are perfectly entitled to demand a cabbie is arrested if he doesn't have a bale of hay in the boot).
Sorry, but this old chestnut has been superceded by newer bye laws (and again it only applied to licensed hackney carriage drivers)
Likewise, you can have all the Sunday morning soccer players put inside - they should be at archery practice!
The latter seems like a very good idea to me...
