Okay, so there was an incident I recall maybe 25 years ago where one omlet drove his metal spiked tractor down a freshly paved asphalt highway, doing roughly a million dollars in damages.
Now he went to jail for that, but then did it again when they fixed the road.
As far as I'm aware there is STILL an order up to this day that if the county sheriffs dept see him on a county road in his lifetime the supervisors want him arrested on sight as a public nusiance.
I think there is an amount of dickishness inherent with being Amish to begin with, so that checks out. Every single one I've met's personality STARTS at "old man who hates everything that isn't exactly his routine" and then goes from there.
But most complied, albeit begrudgingly, with any law or order when they are out in the world.
The bunch I know were dicks about it.

Honestly? That's hilarious.
