The 1970s weren’t reckless on purpose. They just didn’t have all the rules we do now. It was totally normal to light up a cigarette inside a diner, send kids to the store with a note and some cash, and pile five people into the front seat of a pickup truck. In states like Delaware,…
California is famous for its sunshine, surfboards, and movie stars. But tucked away in dusty legal codes are rules that feel straight out of a comedy sketch.
