Sex at 60 mph is OK in Germany

BERLIN (Reuters) - Having sex while driving at 100 kph (60 mph) down a motorway is not an offence in Germany. But if you hit something make sure you don\'t run off.

A Cologne court fined a man who admitted he was having sex with a blonde hitchhiker sitting astride him when he drove his car into a road sign. But only because he fled the scene of the accident with his naked accomplice.

"The man was convicted of hit-and-run and sentenced to a fine of 600 euros," court spokesman Juergen Mannebeck said on Tuesday. "It\'s hard to believe but in fact no law was broken with the intercourse on the motorway. It\'s a situation lawmakers never thought about."

The 23-year-old man, who was tracked down through the car\'s registration, was also ordered to pay 400 euros to repair the sign. He did not know the name of the woman who left her clothes behind in the car.

Imagine if they had become trapped in the car and the fire brigade had to cut off the roof. That would have been a sight.

Call me stupid, but is that legal in the U.S? And I dunno, so what does 600 euros roughly equal in US dollars?

$686.  How do you do that anyway? sex while driving? why cant you at least wait till you get somewhere and stop lol.

Maybe she was a midget... that way he could still drive...

Maybe it was a big truck?

Meh, thats gotta be illegal in any \'normal\' country.
