A U.K. woman was pulled over and slapped with a 60 pound ($90 U.S.) fine after traffic police caught her flossing while driving a 70 mph, according to a story in the Telegraph.
The police spotted the driver using dental floss to clean her teeth in the rearview mirror of her car. She was pulled over, lectured about careless driving, and given a ticket, the Telegraph reported.
"We've caught women applying lipstick, makeup and checking their hair in the mirror -- and even men using an electric razor on their way to work," a police spokesperson told Telegraph. "But this is the first time we've seen someone flossing their teeth at the wheel."
