London, October 13 (ANI): Passionate lovers should not drink if they want to escape law trouble after having car sex.

At least, this was the lesson learnt by an amorous couple that was hauled in for drunken driving after having sex in their car, parked at a disabled space outside a police station.

The duo, after attending a university event, had parked outside the main police station in Hellertown, Pennsylvania, and left the engine running.

A report in the Morning Call newspaper suggests that the couple were caught by a police officer who tapped on their windscreen, reports the Daily Telegraph.

They told the cops that they did not realise where they had parked their vehicle because they were under the influence of alcohol, the report says.

They even failed to notice the marked police cars in the other parking spaces nearby, the report adds.

Following the event, 23-year-old Dennis Cullen was charged under drunken-driving though both he and his unnamed female companion were let off not being charged in connection with having car sex. (ANI)
