    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.

    • @talphazero1036

      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.

    • @MischeifMakerz

      You have to be going pretty fast through a puddle to create enough splash to splash someone. But, in this circumstance if it was truly unavoidable without putting yourself or others in greater harm, then I’m sure you’d be fine.

      Punishing someone for what they said does not violate freedom of speech. It means having consequences. And yes, no one should call no one an asshole. It's not a nice thing to say to anyone. And it should have consequences. You will say that you don't like someone, but what is the context of that? 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.

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!

    Big tip here if you ever go to Orlando and it rains. Do not get caught outside on International Drive during the rain storm. As a Lyft driver who was driving during a freak storm a few weeks ago, when you're on the outside lane there are some dips and holes that even going under 10MPH, you're going to splash people pretty well by accident.

    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.

    The last one you can do in Europe as well. You can get the things deleted or else sue if someone made a video about you (you must be the main subject) without your consent and even after if you want to withdraw that consent.

      (the typo bit's 'cause of the OP's use of "toke".)
      Then again, it could just as easily be a grammar error...the mixing of future tense ("if I ever") with what I'm presuming was supposed to be past tense version of "take"...? (Apparently two actual past tense versions of "take" are "took" or "taken".)
      ...And now a third possibility of "spelling error" has emerged. o.o;
