Didn't know if I should post in chit chat or here but its a creative game so...

For those that don't know how this works. A world is presented that is exactly the same as our save for one thing which is taken from a fantasy book and inserting into our everyday lives, then a question for you to answer. For example in the question below qudditch is not a valid answer but competitive staring is. Once you come up with an answer you must defend it through a complexly humorous explanation that begs the question why you are not in a mental asylum or as you deem appropriate. There is no wrong answer unless there is, best answer wins the "warm fuzzy feeling upon knowing you win."

Dress code standards, dresses skirts would be much too distracting to male drivers. Max and min altitude quotas for aircraft pilots and flying women. Radio transponders for all flight. Medical checks. Cannot think of a fifth.
