Discussion
Has anyone noticed that any news story involving strange behaviour while either naked or driving (or both in the case of the flying underpants story) invariably takes place in Germany?

BERLIN, Aug 13 (Reuters) - A German man of Polish origin lost his driving licence after failing an alcohol test but his dog passed with flying colours, police in the western city of Koblenz said on Wednesday.
Police said the 47-year-old man failed to perform any of the required actions, only to be upstaged by his West Highland white terrier who executed all of the commands given perfectly, including a 360 degree turn as his master staggered and fell.
At the conclusion of the uneven contest, the supervising doctor announced, "Man: fail; dog: pass."
