Sometimes a government will pass a law regarding broadcasting that can drive you crazy. (CanCon anyone?) But if you thought some of the things the CRTC does are questionable, it's got nothing on a new law in Zimbabwe. 

Like Britain, they require people to pay a "radio licence" to help support their national broadcaster. But they've just brought in new rules that state unless you can prove you've paid that fee, you're not allowed to have a driver's licence. That's right. If you don't pay for this radio support fee, you can't drive a car in the country. 

"[It] means that if you want to renew your motor vehicle licence or get motor insurance, you’ll have to show proof that you’ve paid for a Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) radio licence.

Sounds good in theory, right? Supporting our national broadcaster and all. But there’s a massive elephant in the room, so big you might need a bigger car just to dodge it. And that elephant is shouting: What about the people who don’t even listen to the radio?"
 
For all the things we put up with concerning the CRTC, at least they've never stooped that low!
