Go to Las Vegas and then a dry county in Kentucky and note what you're allowed to buy and what you're allowed to do on the streets.

I can smoke weed legally for recreational purposes where I am here. Where I grew up I'd be thrown in jail.

Texas has no zoning laws of any kind. You can build any kind of building for any purpose anywhere (I'm sure there's still restrictions, but there's no zones per se.)

States have wildly different speed limits on highways. Different levels of allowed alcohol.

This is just off the top of my head without googling, I'm sure there's probably even bigger examples as well.
