32. Colorado: Sunday Car Sales
Blue laws, which were historically designed to enforce a mandatory day of rest for religious reasons, still heavily dictate modern commerce in several regions. In this state, automotive dealers are strictly prohibited from opening their lots or selling cars on Sundays. Interestingly, this law is heavily supported and defended by the auto industry itself. The legislation guarantees that all dealership employees receive at least one mandatory day off per week without the constant fear of losing potential weekend sales to a competing business down the street, effectively preventing brutal weekend price wars.
