Photo by volcanojw.Via the Post’s Tom Jackman, a courtroom yarn of the highest order: a lawsuit filed in Fairfax County alleges that a Woodbridge man, driving back from his 21st birthday party in Baltimore, was drunkenly having sex with a woman — “partially or totally in the backseat of the car,” no less — while going 85 miles per hour on the Beltway when he hit a cab driver. The cab driver’s attorney argued that “having sex at 85 miles per hour while drunk on a freeway is willful and wanton negligence” (which seems like a logical enough assessment). The plaintiff’s lawyer countered that there’s “no statement by anyone that they were driving on the Beltway having sex.”
The cabbie is seeking $75,000 in damages.
One can only hope there will be some visual aids presented during witness testimony.
