<\/a>You Can\u2019t Drive With Lights On In Your Car<\/h2>\nWe all know that you need to turn your headlights on when you\u2019re driving in the dark. In fact, in some countries you need your lights on at all times<\/u><\/span><\/a> – weird, I know. However, I can almost guarantee most of you have been told you can\u2019t drive with your internal car lights turned on. This is something that seems to get passed down through the generations with the majority of drivers thinking it\u2019s an offense.<\/p>\nThe fact is, no laws stop you from having lights on in your car. If you need them on to look at a map or for any other reason, you\u2019re more than welcome to. People have been told that a light in your car is a distraction for other drivers, but it\u2019s just not true.<\/p>\n
So, the next time your parents tell you to turn off the light you can say it\u2019s not illegal and blow their mind.<\/p>\n
<\/a>A Certain Number Of People Have To Fail Their Driving Exam<\/h2>\nThis is always a myth that makes me laugh and is passed around learner drivers like the common cold. There\u2019s always that one kid that tells everyone they\u2019ve heard that examiners have to fail a certain number of people per week as it fills a quota or something silly like that. People believe it because the DMV is a government agency and a lot of people think government stuff is shady. Plus, you always have someone whose best friend\u2019s sister had a boyfriend with an uncle that worked at the DMV and told them it was true…which totally makes it legit.<\/p>\n
You might be pleased to know this is an absolute lie. There\u2019s no \u2018quota\u2019 that needs to be filled, failing people for no reason is counter-productive. It makes life harder for the examiner as they have to do more work, there\u2019s just no point.<\/p>\n
More often than not, this myth comes from someone that failed their exam and doesn\u2019t want to admit that they weren\u2019t good enough so decided the DMV must be doing something illegal. It\u2019s not the case, if you\u2019re good enough, you\u2019ll pass no matter what<\/u><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/a>You Can\u2019t Drink And Drive<\/h2>\nNow, you\u2019re probably looking a little bit skeptical at this myth. Surely, surely, it\u2019s illegal to drink and drive?! Well, yes and no. No, it\u2019s not illegal to drink water, juice, coffee, or any other regular drink while driving. A cop can\u2019t pull you over if you\u2019re sipping on some Mountain Dew or sinking a few espresso shots early in the morning.<\/p>\n
However, it\u2019s clearly illegal to drink alcoholic beverages while you\u2019re driving. If you start drinking a bottle of beer while you\u2019re driving or still have a significant amount of alcohol in your system, you will get busted and end up on the phone to the local DUI attorney<\/u><\/span><\/a>. The myth here is that you can\u2019t drink anything at all while driving, which isn\u2019t the case. I know a lot of people that won\u2019t drink water while driving because they think you can\u2019t drink and drive legally.<\/p>\nThere is a catch, if you crash because you were sipping from a bottle of water and took your eyes off the road, you can get done for careless driving because you were drinking. But, the actual act of drinking non-alcoholic beverages isn\u2019t illegal.<\/p>\n
