"So its required unless its not"

Take speed limits, for example. It's illegal to go 100 miles per hour, unless it's not (for instance, on private property). It's illegal to go 55 some places, but not others. But speed limits generally don't apply to folks like cops and rescue workers. Legality is determined by the action taken, the location of that action, and the participants.

Nope, I thought she was your last date. ;-)
