Quebec man killed in head-on crash while having sex at the wheel

ST-JOACHIM, Que. (CP) - A 25-year-old man was killed and his partner was seriously injured Friday in a head-on crash that police said took place while the driver was having sex behind the wheel.

Another car veered into the couple's path in this town 25 kilometres northeast of Quebec City, shattering both vehicles and trapping the occupants.

The 25-year-old driver, from Baie-Comeau, Que., was killed on impact and the driver of the other vehicle was gravely injured, said provincial police.

Witnesses said the deceased man and his female passenger were partially undressed, leading police to believe the couple had been having sex prior to impact.

"The two people at this moment were in the midst of having sexual intercourse at the wheel of the vehicle, which makes driving that much more dangerous," said provincial police spokesman Richard Gagne.

Although the couple's car never veered out of its lane, police said their manoeuvre was dangerous and potentially illegal.

"They endangered their safety and that of others," said Gagne.

Provincial police said anyone found to have been having sex at the wheel prior to an accident could face criminal charges ranging from gross indecency to negligence.

Emergency workers used heavy tools to extract the injured victims from their cars.

Provincial police said the 37-year-old driver whose car left its lane was either distracted or fell asleep at the wheel.

Ooh, ooh, me, me, mee!

Sounded like a normal sexual manoeuvre at first.

HEHEHE. Yeah, having sex while driving will do that to you.

Is anyone amused that the couple having sex weren't really responsible?

And, I have to wonder--

Did the guy die before his girlfriend was freed? Because if not, well, she'll be, you know, fucking a dead guy......

I smell a Darwin Award Winner. He could have just settled for shaving while driving, or perhaps reading a magazine while driving, but he had to go that extra mile.

Doubtful- he wasn't responsible for the accident.

Why? He wasn't responsible for the accident.

Have a very nice day.

He wasn't responsible for the accident, but his survivability probably would have been greater if both he and his girlfriend were properly seatbelted into the car: something which would have been impossible if they were having sex.

Any time someone not wearing a seatbelt has a car accident and dies, it's a potential Darwin Award winner even if the accident wasn't his fault. Part of smart and safe driving is taking proper precautions.

After actually reading the article, I see your point. But, I was thinking that common sense would dictate that you not do something like have sex while driving.
