Woman causes traffic by having sex in car, faces jail time or fine

A woman has been ordered to serve up to six months in prison or pay a fine for causing traffic by having sex in her car on a busy road in Kenya.

The incident took place on Jan. 26. According to a report by a local TV station, traffic officers wanted to see what caused the massive jam on the highway and got surprised when they found the woman turning the heat up with her boyfriend inside her vehicle. 

“Upon approaching the accused person’s vehicle, they found the woman in a compromising situation with a man in their car, which was stopped in the middle of the road,” the report read. 

“The prosecution informed the court that the officers politely interrupted the session and asked the two lovebirds to move to the driveway but were faced with hostility,” it added.

The prosecutor said that the accused was "enraged by the police request to drive away” and  “began hurling insults at the officers who were armed and even reportedly dared them to open fire.” 

Kenyan media reported she has been fined Ksh 20,000 “in default to serve a six-month jail term.”
