Arizona laws

The Navajo Nation is it's own sovereign entity. Does the Navajo Nation have to adhere to United States and Arizona laws? Here's how it works.

Many of Arizona's jokey or useless laws tend to be forgotten, and force no real change. One, though, wacky as it sounds, is doing an excellent job at keeping fun... fair.

Self defense is a tricky thing to navigate. While you may be inclined to take any force necessary to protect yourself, there are certain stipulations you just follow.

There's nothing more aggravating than getting pulled over for speeding. Whether you did or didn't break the law doesn't matter, the inconvenience of having to stop where you're going for an extended period of time is always a pain.

One of my proudest attributes is my driving ability. I've been known through friends and family to be one of the better drivers they all know, and that all just comes down to following the rules of the road.

No matter where you live in the United States, it's a guarantee you've gotten upset at someone's driving ability. It's quite common to see someone going 10 miles under the speed limit or changing lanes without warning almost every day.

Arizona is one of 24 states that are considered 'Stop and Identify" states. Effectively, this means that police are allowed to request your ID if you are under reasonable suspicion of criminal activity, or are believed to engage in criminal activity.

If you've ever looked around a public place, you've likely seen a sign that says "NO LOITERING". In layman's terms, this means that you're not allowed to simply hang out in these marked places.

In order to ensure we can have a functioning nation, we elect politicians to make the rules for us, but that shouldn't mean they're above the laws they write.

We want the areas we live to be safe, and step one of that is to crack down on weapons ownership and gang affiliations. While never a permanent solution, lawmakers do their best to reduce violent crime, and will do everything they can to make their constituents feel safe.
