Pornography has been cited in the distracted-driving death of a Michigan resident involved in a single-car crash.
The 58-year-old was allegedly watching an adult film on his cellphone while attempting to simultaneously drive and masturbate, Michigan State Police told local news outlet Fox2.
Wearing neither pants nor seatbelt, the man reportedly lost control of his 1996 Toyota on I-75 in Detroit. The car consequently rolled, partially ejecting and killing the driver.
Michigan State Police Lieutenant Mike Shaw claims the accident tops his list of strangest encounters on the road, according to a CBS Detroit report.
The incident is not the first traffic fatality to involve lustful distractions. In another case last year, a truck driver was accused being distracted by nude pictures on his cellphone before his rig smashed into the back of an SUV in Georgia and killed five Georgia Southern University students.
