NZ gal's Bulgarian airbags halt traffic
A New Zealand teenager whose mates dared her to flash her chesticles at passing motorists brought traffic to a standstill when an appreciative driver ran her over, the Southland Times reports. Cherelle May Dudfield, 18, stood in the middle of an Invercargill road with her assets exposed on 27 September. This turned out to be ill …

Where's the Playmobil re-creation?
brains out, jubblies in...
A brain removal pre-op seems to be standard for breast enhancement patients these days.
Am i the only one who would have sued her for damage to my car and personal trauma (unless she was some kind of model).
I agree...
Though if she is a model there's always the 'out-of-court settlement' option... well, if she's fit....
Yeah! Pics!
We need to see the weapons of car distraction, or there's no need to move to NZ!
What a cracker...
“Cracking the windscreen”
Is that some sort of euphemism?
Did Ms Dudfield suffer an additional unreported wardrobe malfunction?
What exactly did she crack the windscreen with?
Resisting the temptation to make some totally inappropriate comment about hardness of her bits, usually in my experience as a medic, the windscreen is cracked by "a bit of head".
Otherwise it all seems a bit difficult to swallow really.
Lucky girl...
.. in the UK she'd have been put straight on the sex offenders register..
Surely...
...the title should be:
NZ GAL'S BULGARIAN AIRBAGS FAIL TO HALT TRAFFIC
Jubtastic possibly - but no Bulgarian airbags
C'mon Lester - have you been at the sauce early today??
As this is clearly a story of international significance to those of us in the IT professions I took it upon myself to...erm...uncover the particulars of this story: it would appear that the pair of "traffic cones" in question were 100% natural. And all the better for that IMHO.
</perv>
Well...
obviously airbags do save lives then.
Playmobil!
The irony...
Said airbags failed to inflate further to protect the poor girl.
you got pix
flash 10 needed

Driver is lucky he isn't a UK driver....
....as if this had happened over here I reckon he'd have been the one charged (probably with DWDC&A) and the girl would be claiming compo off've his insurance.
Cherelle?
That's what I like about the Anglophone world... you can spot chavs by their names.
Tough totty
It gets pretty cold down in Invercargill at that time of year. Not ideal flashing weather.
So in conclusion...
So you mean you think it's the frozen silicone bags that broke the windscreen? That is scary.
Somehow...
... methinks pictures of this lassie may offend the common male quite a bit.
Prove us wrong though, El Reg!
Err.. Paris? Cos she's got none, really....
Call to motion
The Judge and the Driver should handover their man bits and be kicked out of Reg Club for discouraging this kind of thing.
To vote for this motion please click on the appropriate thumb!
Hurray for democracy the tyranny of the majority
Invercargill?
That's got to be the most exciting thing to happen there for years!
That article is great!
I love new zealanders - the policeman is obviously trying not to split himself laughing, yer one seems to be to be a bit embarrassed and they had her pretend to flash about 10 times.
Yeah...
And they labeled her "reformed flasher" and had her (pretend to?) flash the cows too.
In unrelated news ...
Former President Bill Clinton has begged the Obama administration to be made a Special Envoy to New Zealand.
Why Bulgarian?
Pardon my ignorance, but why are they called BULGARIAN airbags. Surely they were made in New Zealand
Standards
Standard terminology, please don't question it or you'll break the fabric of our El Reg world.

See http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/10/03/bulgarian_airbags/
Clearly, there was a reaction ...
Their jaws dropped ... they were thinking "Holy crap! Does she call THAT an udder? Why is it bifurcated, why is it mounted entirely too close to her neck, and where are the other two teats?"
I'm always appalled at the lack of understanding when it comes to animal behavior, despite the fact that humans have been domesticating animals for tens of centuries ...
The driver
was obviously temporarily blinded by the oncoming high-beam headlights
Does this mean that NZ are crap at peno shoot-outs too?
Driving straight at the distraction?

Is it only me...
that finds "Lay Court" funny in this story? (watch the vid)
Re Bulgarian Airbags..

@Fred Flintstone
Pah! They've seen it all before. And better.
Hopefully the airbags cushioned the blow.
Ok, getting coat now to cover my moobs.
Just as well she's 18...
...otherwise the driver would have got 25-to-life for molesting a minor!
From NZ
Sorry guys, this was reported on the TV last night over here, and you really should not be asking for pics. Have a look at http://www.3news.co.nz/Motorist-distracted-by-a-fine-pair/tabid/423/articleID/134283/Default.aspx
Mind you, her face wasn't blurred on the telly.
We don't need no steenking titles...
Her face also belonged to her, not a model in a stock image....
I can't make my mind up if the pic is gratuitous or not...
After all there are more sheep in New Zealand than people and, well, I bet it gets lonely on those cold winter nights and they might need reminding what a woman looks like...
Cold day?
Must've been a bit nippy out. Guess you really can cut glass with 'em.
News from my home town!
Wow, my home town mentioned in The Register. What is the world coming to?!
Really though, September is spring in the deep south and they are used to the cold anyway. And if you are going to link to the story you could at least link to the original source.

Paris, because it seems right up her alley...
Thanks for the enlightenment!
You learn something new every day. I shall henceforth refer to chesticles, bazookahs, norks, knockers as bulgarian air-bags.
In Paris's case they are more like tea-bags.
Headline misleading?
As far as I can make out, while the ensuing fracas was traffic-stopping, the actual funbags as displayed were conclusively proven not to be.
This is why I read the reg...
"Bulgarian airbags" is now added to my lexicon of alternative words for well... Bulgarian airbags
Are they different down there?
Surely the overriding rule of driving (on the LHS of the road) is that if anything is in front of you STOP!
