Should basic law and personal finance classes be required in high school?

There should be a class that corrects incorrect assumptions the public has received from watching TV and movies.
1.they don't (have to) read you your rights when they arrest you
2.henchmen can occasionally hit things they aim at
3.cars don't blow up when rear ended or shot at
4.courtrooms don't work that way, at all
5.most sex happens with the bra off
6.you can't just "zoom in and enhance"
7.most "hacking" isn't done with a GUI and certainly not "inside the computer" via some goofy 3D graphics thing
8.swords don't go "schwing" when pulled from the scabbard
9.when punching someone, there is no "pishhh" sound.  Maybe a dull thud.
10.cows don't tip
