What's the law in your state?
Most answers to that question online are written to capture a lead, not to answer it. This
site does one thing: it reads the statute, states what it says, names the section, and shows
the date a person last checked it. Where the law is unclear it says so instead of guessing.
How these answers are made
Every figure is read at the state's own legislature or statute site, or at a state agency
page that cites the section. Never at a summary table, a law firm page or a search result.
That rule exists because the summaries are wrong often enough to matter, and they are
usually wrong in the same direction, which is the dangerous one.
Each page shows the statute it came from, links to it, and carries the date it was last
reviewed. A record no person has checked says so, loudly, on its own page.
The most recent review was 4 October 2026.
This is information, not legal advice. A city or county can set a stricter rule than its
state, and an officer enforces the text of the statute rather than a summary of it.
