In British Columbia, startled motorists contacted the police to report the fact that three people were having sex. Nothing wrong with that you might think - good luck to 'em. Thing is, there were in a car on the Trans Canada Highway at the time.

The three, erm, performers, - a male and two females - were described as 'wanting to attract attention from other motorists.' Well, I suppose, having sex would be the way to do it - especially since the male participant was also driving the car.

The owner of the vehicle was traced from the license plates and officers went to that address to await the car's return, Rice said.

On arrival, only one of the women was inside with the male driver, who said he had dropped the other woman off. The woman has been sent off for psychiatric reports but - get this - as the police did not witness the sex acts, the man can only be charged with driving without due care and attention.

Some guys have all the luck, eh?
