Not really a specific law, but as part of the Americans with Disabilities Act businesses are required to post information in Braille. One that I noticed, and heard mentioned on TV a while back as well, is that the drive-up ATMs and often drive-up pharmacy windows have instructions in Braille. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you have to be able to see in order to drive a motor vehicle? Someone really didn't give that one much thought imho...

Still a silly law in England where boys have to practice archery every day. No one does, and very few people have even heard of this law, so I have no idea why the government haven't got rid of it yet.
