Darwin Award Contender

Post by colchar » March 12th, 2010, 11:16 am

A couple of years ago our provincial police did a safe driving blitz aimed at catching people doing stupid shit while driving. One of the people caught was a woman who was eating a bowl of cereal and doing her makeup while driving. Until now, I had thought that nobody could be dumber than her. I was wrong. The woman in the story linked below definitely beats her - by a fuckin' mile:

Wow, where are the crime scene photos of that one? ;) Seriously though, she's lucky she didn't cut a chunk out of herself.

The most screwed up part to me is that it's her ex-husband driving with her to meet her boyfriend.

Wait a minute! She was behind the wheel, engaged in landscaping on the way to see her boyfriend while her ex-Husband was in the passenger seat controlling the wheel?

This is problematic on so many levels!

I'm thinking her boyfriend's name just might be John.

I'm not even sure where to start.
While driving?
With your exhusband on the way to meet your boyfriend?
No water?
No shaving cream?

Barbaric.
