Riddles thread

A bus driver was heading down a street in Colorado. He went right past a stop sign without stopping he turned left where there was a "no left turn" sign and he went the wrong way on a one-way street. Then he went on the left side of the road past a cop car. Still - he didn"t break any traffic laws. Why not?"

He was walking.
 
Heres a good one. A man in a car gets shot in the head, All the windows/doors are up. And also he's not in the back.

But I don't think they're going to post their guess. They're just going to guess in their head and then click on the spoiler.

What goes around the world but stays in a corner?

A stamp.
 
A poor but smart farmer is convicted for fraud against rich governor. He gets the death penalty for his crime. The judge allows him to say a last sentence in order to determine the way the penalty will be carried out. If the farmer lies, he will be hanged, if he speaks the truth he will be beheaded. The farmer speaks a last sentence and to everybody surprise some minutes later he is set free because the judge cannot determine his penalty.

What did the farmer say?

I did one similar to this one earlier.
 
It is like a box without hinges or lid; inside a golden tresure is hid. What is it?

A man lives in a hut. There's nothing in there he could stand on, it's empty! But somehow, he hangs himself! When the police investigate his body, all they found was a corpse and water. How did he do it?

What has cows that don't moo, ride where you walk, freshwater you can't drink, needles you can't thread, newport you can't bottle, and newtown which is very old?
HINT: Only people in the south of England may get this.

Farmer Bedford is stuck in a well 30 metres deep. Every day, he climbs 3 metres, but then slips 2 metres back down. How many days does it take for Farmer Bedford to get out of the well?

Please, let it be Oskar's Treasure Chest!

Here's one that took me ages to find out. See if you can get it faster than me:

Who makes it has no need for it.
You can catch it but can not throw it.
Give me food, and I will live; give me water, and I will die.
The man who invented it doesn't want it. The man who bought it doesn't need it. The man who needs it doesn't know it.
The poor have it, the rich need it and if you eat it you'll die.
I am the beginning of the end, and the end of time and space. I am essential to creation, and I surround every place.

What am I?
