"I can get arrested for that?"

I can get arrested for that? Some acts that could get you in hot water overseas

Thinking of going to the Netherlands to get stoned? Think again. While "coffee shops" still sell all manner of legal ways to get ripped, the law was changed two years ago so that only residents of the Netherlands can legally purchase marijuana in these cafes. Amsterdam has chosen not to enforce the law.

How about feeding pigeons in San Francisco or carrying your shopping in a plastic bag in Rwanda? Sounds harmless but both those acts are actually prohibited.


With Australian Jodi Magi in jail in the United Arab Emirates "for writing bad words on social media", it is worthwhile considering what you think you might be able to do while overseas. Some simple acts could actually land you with a fine - or worse.

Lack of fluoro

It is compulsory to always have a fluorescent vest in a motor vehicle in Croatia.

This is true. Even if it doesn't fit on you, you still gotta have it in your trunk, along with the first aid kit, spare light bulbs, portable fluorescent triangle and a tyre wrench, so you can show it all to the police officer, in case one pulls you over and asks to see it.

I'm not sure about the car jack, though. :unsure2:
