The problem is that it is not possible to drive (or do much of anything) without breaking the law. There are more laws than any single person has ever read and ignorance is not excuse.
That is a problem, yes, but I didn't see anything in the article citing obscure laws that no one knows about. The closest I saw was not subscribing to the only approved trash service.
It's a bit inverted, but a good chunk of the article centered on the common misconception that if you show up to court for a ticket and can't pay the fine, you'll go to jail. This is causing a lot of people to fail to appear in court, getting them in much more trouble than they were originally.
