    Yeah, in the UK, it’s called “Driving without due care or attention” if you splash someone with a huge puddle and if caught, you can be fined up to £5000 (pounds not euros). A reasonable law, in my opinion. It can cover other things as well such as speeding, getting distracted by other tasks, getting tired behind the wheel etc.

    What if it's literally impossible to avoid the puddle(busy road on both sides, other side of road is damaged, etc.) and someone is standing beside the puddle you can't avoid and they get splashed. What would happen? Especially in an instance where you signal to them but they still don't get out of the splash-zone, or they for whatever reason intercept the splashed water on purpose to try and frick you over.

Foreign women who are married to a Japanese man automatically have their children recognized as Japanese citizens.

And by the same token, paternity should never be denied if the test proves paternity.

You will gratuitously say that you don't like someone to their face just for the sake of it? Or to provoke a reaction on that person? You can have opinions on things, but it doesn't mean you should all sorts of poor wording to voice them out, otherwise you should suffer consequences.

    5:51 The law about women having to wait a period of time before remarriage does make some sense considering testing to establish paternity has only existed since the 1980's and this is to allow any pregnancy to either be obvious and/or come to term and at least grant some clarity as to who's the father. It also prevents a man from divorcing a pregnant woman and claiming the child isn't his. It's to head off legal battles, and potentially ACTUAL battles over the issues of parentage, legitimacy, and inheritances.

    For the last law, there's a pretty famous case going on now with Vtubers suing one of the drama channels for basically ruining their career, with a one very one sided take on some internal corporate drama that went on 2 years ago. There's a lot more going behind closed doors in the trial than we know though, but this is legal precedent. The defamed vtuber hasn't streamed since but they just passed the stage where a Japanese court sided with them and ordered the ISP to hand over personal information from the drama channel for the next stage.

So we’re nice people, my hubby and I just take the packages and drop them at the correct doors and call it a day. Honestly, I think the postal service, UPS, FedEx, Amazon and all the other idiots who can’t read an address should start paying us for delivering packages. Imagine getting arrested for that!
