FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. -- Jaws dropped in a Fairfax County courthouse after a Woodbridge man is accused of having sex while driving at 85 miles per hour on the Beltway.
Court records show the driver was returning from his 21st birthday party in Baltimore when he crashed into a taxi near Telegraph Road in May of last year. The driver was convicted of drunken driving, but the cab driver filed suit asking for $75,000 in damages.
The suit claims at the time of the crash, the defendant was either partly or completely in the back seat of the car.
The young man's lawyer tells the Washington Post there's no evidence his client was doing the deed at the same time he was driving.
A trial is set for next week.
In reading the article I've come across a dilemma - one that some of my readers might have as well. Should one be angry at this man for doing such a horrible stupid thing on the road - driving way too fast, drunk, and obviously distracted. Or should we applaud him for such acts? Really, how does one do all of that at once? And exactly how was he "either partiall or completely in the back seat of the car" AND still driving AND having sex AND still going 85 mph? Sounds like someone has some real talent, it's probably going to go to waste in jail. Sorry buddy. Might want to pull over next time, then you'll have FULL use of the backseat, and won't have to worry about a silly little lawsuit.
