Police Arrest Norwegian Pair For 'High-Speed Sex'

A Norwegian man is facing a heavy fine and a driving ban after police caught him having sex with his girlfriend while speeding on the motorway.

The unnamed couple, a 28-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman, were caught in the act late on Easter Sunday by traffic police on the E18 highway, some 25 miles (40 kilometres) west of Oslo

Officers who clocked the couple's silver Mazda 323 racing at 133 kilometres per hour in a 100 zone realised they were doing more than just breaking the speed limit.

"It was veering from one side to the other because the woman was sitting on the man's lap while he was driving and doing the act, shall we say," Tor Stein Hagen, a superintendent with Soendre Buskerund district police tells papers.

"Why they did it on a highway with such a high risk we don't know. He couldn't see much because her back was in the way."

After following the couple for nearly a kilometre, officers were able to pull the car over at a service station.

"We have taken away his driving licence because of the danger that he caused," adds Hagen.

Prosecutors will decide what else the man will face within the next week, with police having filmed the incident to use as evidence against the driver.

Hagen says he expects the man to face a fine of "several thousand Norwegian crowns" (1 US dollar = 6.6 Kroners) and a lengthy driving ban.
