back to article Florida woman prangs car while shaving her privates

A Florida Highway Patrol officer has admitted his incredulity at a woman who pranged her car while shaving her privates. Megan Mariah Barnes, 37, was driving her Thunderbird in Key West last week when she piled into the back of a Chevrolet pickup carrying four people.

    Huh?

    So, her ex-hubby was helping her drive to a date with her boyfriend whilst she shaved her muff to be ready for, well, something?

    Jeesh! Talk about an open relationship.

    Paris, 'cos she knows about muff driving.

    ... this woman was trimming her pubes on her way to a date with her boyfriend whilst in a car *next to her ex-husband* ... If this is true, I salute the open-mindedness of both gentlemen in question!!!

    Well, thunderbirds are GO, (s)natch.

    At least she was in the front of a Thunderbird, not in the back of a Trans-Am*

    Seems she had a brush with the law.

    "Swapping places with Judy didn't fool cops, though, because the airbag in the driver’s seat had not deployed and he had "burns from the passenger side airbag that proved he had not been in the driver’s seat"."

    Not to mention the pile of pubes on the drivers seat?

    I find it a bit strange tho, how on earth do the police *know* this? She drove on after the accident, swapped seats with husband and then were caught by police. I'm assuming she wasn't trimming throughout, so I can only conclude she fessed up!

    If the drivers side airbag had deployed there would have been a follow on story from a Florida hospital emergency room.

    But joking aside it's all fun and games till the person in the other car ends up in a wheel chair as a result of her little mishap.

    Having seen the photos a little tidy up in the nether regions looks the least of her concerns.

    Mind you definite potential for "10 years younger."
