I love my home state of Missouri, but I will admit that we can be a curious people all the time sometimes. If you'd like to see more evidence of that, look at what many agree is the dumbest actual law in Missouri. It involves cars and Tarzan and I'm not making any of that up. I saw this shared by Reader's Digest regarding the dumbest laws in each state and the one for Missouri is a real doozie. You'll find it in University City, Missouri and I can even give you the exact statute so you can look it up. As Stupid Laws documents, it's 10.32.100 and it warns you to not...

When it comes to hospital safety, you definitely want a passing grade. For 2 Missouri hospitals, they received 'D' ratings in a new ranking of all the health facilities in the state.
