The Law Explained

Salt Lake City's early history is deeply tied to livestock and agriculture, leading to massive traffic jams caused by wandering herds of sheep. The city council eventually demanded that ranchers get a permit and a police escort before moving their woolly assets through downtown. Even though the streets are now paved and filled with cars, this ordinance technically remains on the books to prevent ovine gridlock.
