Woman crashes car while shaving her crotch — This stuff in Florida just writes itself!

Megan Mariah Barnes, a 37-year-old Florida resident, was so excited to be meeting her boyfriend in Key West that she decided to use the travel time to do a little extra grooming.

But Ms. Barnes, cruising Highway 1 behind the wheel of her Ford Thunderbird, wasn’t applying extra lipstick or tweezing her eyebrows; she was preparing her bikini line by doing a little lady gardening.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Barnes’ Thunderbird rammed a pickup truck causing minor injuries to the three passengers inside. Barnes, whose ex-husband was with her in the vehicle, drove about a half-mile past the accident scene, where it is alleged that she pulled over to switch places with her former hubby so that Barnes wouldn’t appear to have been behind the wheel.

    It’s Florida. ‘Nuff said.

    Even more wacky florida-ness at the end of the article, where arresting office states:

    “About 10 years ago I stopped a guy in the exact same spot,” Trooper Dunick said, “who had three or four syringes sticking out of his arm. It was just surreal and I thought, ‘Nothing will ever beat this.’ Well, this takes it.”

    Unfortunately, the accident interfered with the vagazzaling that was sure to follow.

    Traumatic clitorectomy?

  10. Benjamin says:

    Where there exist a set of things that should not be done while driving, there is a subset of things that should not be done except in the privacy of your own home bathroom.

    I appreciate grooming and such, but I wouldn’t date anyone who did that grooming in front of others, especially someone from a past relationship.

    So she REALLY needed a shave?

  15. Steve says:

    It would have been entirely inappropriate for her to ask the ex-husband to do the shaving. So it seems she had no choice. Case dismissed.

  16. ray says:

    And of course her ex was too busy looking at her, let alone warn her of incoming traffic.

    Somethin’ smells fishy about this story!
    First of all this woman’s driving down the road to visit her boyfriend while shaving her bush with her ex-husband in the car. That’s a lot less probable than just about any other story I could think of. I think there’s got to be a more probable explanation here somewhere and I’m sure it’s got something to do with the ex-husband.

    Sounds like Joy Hickey (Earl’s ex) is now alive and living in Florida. Sometimes you think nobody can be as stupid as the people on that Tv show. But then….

    Shaving is last year. Bushes are back in.
