Ok, a few examples:
Tires: The federally mandated test regiment for tires is not only incomplete (leaving us to guess about what some of the test thresholds should be) but the tests themselves do not represent the conditions the tires experience in use. Tires designed simply to pass the tests would be disastrously unsafe on the road, and tires designed to be safe on the road are actually degraded by, and more expensive because of, the features added to pass the regulatory tests.
Cars: remember the first round of CAFE standards? In a misguided effort to reduce oil use the Gubment mandated minimum fuel efficiency standards for cars. Manufactures knew (or quickly learned) that most people didn't want to drive anemic cars, so they started making Not-Cars, so they could sell vehicles people wanted. . . and the SUV was born. SUVs exist because they fell just outside a regulation, the consequences of which made vehicles undesirable and unsafe.
Hmmm, you said any regulation and emphasized "any."
Hunter orange regulation?
Hunter safety education regulation?
Other training regulations?
