Correction: Yes lawyers usually keep up well with parliament issued laws, but I was more referring to local laws, government issued laws. Those are literally impossible to keep up with. So a fine becomes inevitable at some point!

Yeah, various government agencies can just push through new laws/regulations without parliament approval, so the regulations grow exponentially because there is nothing stopping it, they almost create new ones daily. Not to mention county/city council laws, those are just hilarious.

My neighbor told me that he got fined once 600€ for throwing debris out to in front of his house (he was fixing his house and he put the debris before his house, and he would call a trash cleaning company a next day to move it but it was a Sunday so he could not do it that day), even though the debris removal laws were removed by the city countil a few months back, he still got fined.

He should have got a warning, based on existing laws in that city, but yeah, these guys cant even keep up with their own laws. Besides he would have cleaned it up the next day, but why not extort him on every opportunity they get?

It is just insane, it drives us all mad.
