17 ways people got around the rules (legally)
Society is governed by established rules and laws. Sometimes, they’re considered unfair or subject to challenges. And as everyone knows, laws are made to be broken. But you have to find a totally legal way to do it, because you don’t want to become an outlaw and end up behind bars. And the least we can say is that some people are clearly very creative!
Here are 17 ways people got around the law, while remaining legal!
