Asleep at the wheel.
Texting while driving is rarely
recommended in the world
of safe driving, but add the
complication of actually being
asleep at the time and you have a
seriously dangerous cocktail.
A woman in NZ managed to
drive, and even send her friends
text messages, for several hours
while asleep, according to a story
in the New Zealand Herald.
Miraculously, she did not get
into an accident.
The unnamed woman, who
reportedly suffers from a sleep
condition and was taking sleeping
pills at the time, left the coast late
on Tuesday night, driving for five
hours and about 350km texting
her friends.
Police say she has no memory of
the nighttime ride.
Not exactly health food.
Japanese stores have started selling a new taste sensation - cola-tasting crunchy snacks. The new Pepsi-flavoured Cheetos (pictured) have been sampled by the Impulsive Buy blog, which reported that in this case “the cheese powder has been replaced with a cola powder that is disturbingly not brown”. The snack apparently smells like flat fizzy drink mixed with the aroma of cinnamon donuts.
